Q’s Cat Motel
Here at Q’s Cat Motel, our motto is “Cat-isfaction guaranteed at all times”.
Catherine and I love cats and decided to open a cattery to deliver the type of service that all feline guests deserve to receive. Come and visit the cattery, see the accommodation provided. The cattery opened on the 19th December 2006, the cattery was named after our cat Q. If you would like to see a bit about Q please click Meet Q
We looked long and hard to find the right location for our cattery. We finally found our perfect house on the edge of Ayton, a small village in the Scottish Borders, located just off the A1 near Eyemouth and 10 miles from Berwick Upon Tweed.
We are about 400 yards from the A1, giving easy access to the cattery. The location makes us ideal for dropping off your feline friend(s) before heading off on your own holiday. Parking is available beside our house at the garage. We also offer a ‘Collection & Delivery’ service.
As we knew we didn’t want wooden units, we used Pedigree Pens to build the cattery and decided on the ‘penthouse-style’ to maximise the space. The cattery has been built in our garden, and is split into two blocks. The larger block consists of nine double penthouse-style pens and a smaller block consisting of three penthouse-style pens and a storage area.
We chose to call our cattery a “Cat Motel”, as we want to treat your cat’s time with us as his or her own little holiday!
The 12 double penthouse-style units are made from PVCu, designed to be hygienic while maintaining a warm, well-ventilated, secure environment. The cattery has been tiled for both hygiene purposes and to provide our guests with a comfortable place to stretch out or roll. Each penthouse unit is large enough to cater for two guests; we do, however, have connecting units for the larger feline family. The units provide a private penthouse sleeping area which has a thermostatically controlled radiator, keeping guests comfortable no matter what the weather.
The sleeping and eating areas are elevated, with the toilet area located below. For our older guests, toilet facilities can be “en-suite”, with the litter tray placed in the upper area. Bedding and toys are supplied but you are invited to bring any favourite items from home to make your cat’s stay more enjoyable. Below the sleeping quarters are private covered exercise areas. In addition to be being open to the air, they are also sheltered from inclement weather conditions.
Each unit will be thoroughly cleansed between each new arrival and kept to the same high standard throughout each guest’s stay. Fresh water is always available and we aim to keep our guests on the same diet as they are normally fed to avoid stress and digestive upsets.
