Comments
from cattery users
"Having
boarded cats with various catteries over the last
25 years I thought I had seen everything. Windmill
Cat Hotel however takes cat care to a whole new
level. I found myself getting quite jealous
of my cat!"
"The
care Tizzy and Tiz received was excellent. I
would highly recommend Lyndsay's Cat Hotel.
She is extremely dedicated to her work."
"Lyndsay
is very hands-on and attentive to the individual needs
of each cat.
I
recommend Windmill Cat Hotel to all
cat lovers!"
"A
4 star hotel for cats! Very impressed.
Would hugely recommend."
"We
were very impressed. 1st class and very secure.
Lyndsay McAuley is very caring and has a natural ability
with animals. Our babies didn't want to come
home. Extremely well looked after."
"This
is a first class cattery. Small touches such
as texting us on the first night to let us know our
cat had settled in made all the difference."
"My
two cats Willow & Max who didn't want to come
home with me stayed in a 5* hotel. Excellent,
excellent, excellent."

cattery is excellent. Friendly, professional
staff, hygenic and bright modern
surroundings
and tender loving care offered to all its residents"
"Fabulous
cattery! JJ always enjoys his stay at the Cottage Cattery."
"Michelle
and her staff are always very efficient and friendly.
We feel confident leaving our cats with them knowing
they will be in safe hands."
"Home
from home for our cat. Very friendly, caring
attentive staff."
"It's
all lovely - I could stay here myself"
"Even
better than a 'home from home'. Everytime
we leave our two boys they are
greeted
by name and welcomed. They are even provided
with toys and scratching posts"
"Our
cat is very timid and is strange with people but
was instantly happy with Michelle and the others"
"Excellent,
caring cattery, lovely clean roomy accommodation,
obviously a lot
of
trouble taken to have 5 star surroundings! Very
attentive staff"

more priase on any aspect"

that their cat will
receive
all the attention and love it would get at home."

a holiday until I know that there is space for
my little boy. It's a wonderful place.
If Rosie let out her chalets I would stay!!"
