4 Paws Cats Ethos

Here at 4 Paws Farm Cattery we believe that attention, affection and diet are key to your cat’s health and wellbeing whilst staying with us. Here we like to take care of your pet as if it were our own. We will make the time to play and give your cat the sort of attention they are used to.

 
As pet owners and animal lovers we will ensure your cat feels very much at home with us. We will offer them a safe and secure environment, as well as a warm and friendly atmosphere.

4 Paws Cattery

Our newly refurbished cattery boasts 15 cosy cat cottages fully fitted with your feline’s wants and needs. All of our individual cat pods are big enough to house up to 4 cats so family groups can remain close.

 
Our cattery has full central heating with double glazed windows for your cat to take in the views whilst lounging on a heated fleece pad.
 
Our cattery is brand new and boasts:
  • Full insulation with heating
  • Double glazed windows and doors
  • Heated sleeping area

Our ethos means we can protect your pets

Here at 4 Paws we believe that exercise, socialising and diet are key to your dog’s good health and wellbeing whilst staying with us. Your dog will spend most of their day socialising and playing with friends with a large walk in our fields, in the middle of the day. They will be more than happy for a rest of night in their heated kennels.

 
Life here at 4 Paws Farm is every dog’s dream, we allow them the freedom to run and play in a safe and social environment.  The feeding routine here is military and your dog receives their meals on time, just as you instruct, with or without medication they will get the best level of care with all your individual needs catered for. At 4 Paws Farm we believe it is very important for all animals to remain on their own diet throughout their stay to promote good digestive health.

Here at 4 Paws Farm we take your dog into our hearts as well as our home. We understand their needs and are more than happy to give them the extra attention and support needed for them to feel safe and secure at 4 Paws Farm. 
 
During our dog care, we ensure that when your dog isn’t romping around our fields with friends, he or she will be playing in our turnout paddock. We conduct several play sessions in a way to stimulate their minds and keep them mentally stimulated as well as physically. Alternatively they can just relax on a sofa in our doggy day room and keep warm.

Let our contact assessment help your pets

Owners are welcome to come and view our facilities. We do ask this is done by appointment so we can allocate a time slot to be able to give you as much information as possible.

We don’t need to meet your pet before bringing them to us, as we do all our introductions on their first couple of days with us to get to know them.
 
We understand that not all dogs are able to be let off-lead or meet new dogs,  which is why on their first day with us we conduct an assessment of recall and social skills.
We have a mountain of experience so please be confident your dogs needs will be catered for.
