We would love you to leave a comment in our guest book about your cat/s stay with us at Oaklands Cattery

 



As first time cat owners, it was a worry to find the perfect place to look after our fur babies but SO glad we have found Oaklands Cattery. A welcoming and friendly environment with owners who love and care deeply for the cats they look after. Nothing was too much trouble and we even had some messages of much needed reassurance whilst they were in there :) we have already booked their next stay a year in advance so shows how pleased we are. Thank you so much for looking after our cats. Highly recommend! :)

I would definitely recommend! Our two boys were well cared for and we received text and photo updates so we knew they were settled in and eating well. Knowing they were in good hands made the time apart so much easier. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Second time at Oaklands Cattery and I’m so happy. My boys look so happy and healthy. If I could give more than 5 stars I will give 10. I highly recommend this place especially if you have a Sphynx as they need special care. Bridget and her husband take care of my babies so well. Thank you so much

First time ever leaving my cats and was worried they would be stressed.
I can’t believe it I feel like they have had a great time they are really happy calm on bringing them home.
The cattery is beautiful so clean and calm and gren and Bridgett are lovely
I will never again worry to leave my cats they were in great hands.
Absolutely lovely people, thank you

I would thoroughly recommend Oaklands Cattery. My boy was very well looked after by Bridget and Gren and they also took the trouble to send me texts with updates as to how he was doing.

“A big thank you to Gren and Bridget for caring for our Choccie whilst we were away this summer and all the times you have her during the year in your care. It is such a comfort and reassuring to know that she is looked after so well, including giving her the medication she needs with her inhaler. You are both so wonderful with her as she can be a bit needy! We wouldn’t trust anyone else with her. Thanks again and see you in October.”

“Mary and Jojo came for 2 weeks in March (their longest stay yet!) they were fantastically looked after. I was very nervous putting them into a cattery after previous bad experience (with another cattery) but I am very happy to leave my furbabies with Bridget and Grenville whenever we go away - in fact we are planning our next trip already! Thank you so much for looking after my girls so well and helping me to have a fantastic time away by not worrying about them once!”

“Hi, I left my two 8 month old kittens here this weekend. Was nervous as 1st time we have left them, but they were fine, well looked after and Bridget sent me texts to let me know how they were. We will be here again in Jan. It’s nice to have found a lovely caring home from home for my girls. Thank you Bridget for looking after them so well.”

“Mayo has been holidaying at Oaklands since she was young (a few years now). Gren and Bridget look after her so well and we would recommend them to anyone looking for somewhere that will love and care for your cat. It is 2nd nature to us now, we book our holiday and then book Mayo’s!”

— Amy - Aug 16, 2015

“Thank you Bridget and Gren for looking after us so well - We had a lovely party! Hope to see you next year! Love Blue & Vita.”

“Just booked in Zoey for a few little trips to her holiday home with you this year! She loves staying with you and appreciates all the attention and play she gets since she’s still young. Apologies she is such a cheeky monkey! It’s nice to know that when we’re away she is so well looked after by such friendly people - pleasure doing business with you!”

— Karen - Jan 15, 2014

“Just noticed that I can leave comments, so I would like to say a HUGE thank you for the love and care given to our old and frail cat during her stay in August. Thank you for taking her to our vet and for giving her the extra TLC she needed. Your regular text messages were also very much appreciated. Needless to say, we would highly recommend Oaklands Cattery and will definitely be booking in our other two ‘girls’ when holiday dates are known. A big thank you from Paris and from us.”

“Thank you Bridget for looking after me, I really do like staying with you even if I do appear to be a bit bossy. I look forward to seeing you next year. I don’t like my owners to know how much I enjoy my stays with you so I moaned at them all the way home. Giz xxx.”

“Highly recommended. Marley and Max loved staying with Bridget at Oaklands. It is a fantastic, luxurious cattery and the boys were cared for so well. Thank you Bridget.”

“When it comes to choosing the best ‘hotel’ for your cat you will not find a better, more caring and efficient cattery than this. It’s simply the best!”

— Phillip - Nov 12, 2011

“It was lovely to come back after 2 weeks to 3 stress free cats. It was as though they’d had a holiday as well….in a 5* hotel…thank you Bridget and Co.”

— Pauline - Oct 20, 2010

“Having visited the cattery today I found it to be beautifully clean, bright and sunny, more like a 5* hotel for cats. It had a lovely, peaceful atmosphere too. I would certainly use it in the future for my cat.”

— Doreen - Sep 19, 2010

“Hi Bridget & Co. We haven’t said it before so we thought we would like to leave you a huge thank you for looking after and caring so much for Peanut for all the times we have placed her in your care. She loves it at yours. We wouldn’t go elsewhere because we know that Peanut was well looked after. Thank you so much, we will be in touch soon. Thanks again.”

“Our two 14 year old girls came to stay for nearly four weeks in January. I was a bit apprehensive as we had not used Oaklands before and had never left the girls for this length of time. I needn’t have worried - Bridget looked after them wonderfully, taking time to find out what they would eat and providing Poppy with a little house to curl up in, which she didn’t want to leave when we picked them up! They were contented, chilled and cosy during the bitterly cold weather. Thank you so much for taking such good care of them.”

- Sue - Feb 11, 2017

“Hi Bridget and Gren, I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you both, for all the wonderful care & love you have given to my two boys whilst they have been with you. The attention you give them, i can understand why they are so happy to come and stay with you. Having the texts from Bridget to let you know how they have settled in is very reassuring. My thanks again.

— Sharon - Nov 02, 2015

“Thank you Bridget for looking after our two boys again, you look after them so well, they are never stressed coming to you which makes it so much happier for us. Having a text from you to let me know how they are is so nice to receive. See you soon, 12 days time in fact.”

— Sharon & Terry - May 05, 2015

“Thank you Bridget & Grenville for looking after our two boys. They have just settled in after being iffy for a few hours. Can understand why they are like it, you look after them so well even though they are hooligans!! Thank you once again, see you soon.”

— Sharon & Terry - Nov 11, 2014

“Thank you so much Bridget and Gren for looking after Pippin during our holiday. As always I knew she was in brilliant hands so I could enjoy my holiday. Thank you for all your good tips and advice. Don’t know what I would do without you. Thanks again.”

— Jenny - Aug 30, 2013

“Thank you for having me whilst Mum went away. I have come back relaxed and healthy, giving me plenty of energy to torment Mum for leaving me. I had a great time and hope she goes away again soon x.”

— Tibby the Cat - Dec 05, 2012

“We left our cat Chester recently whilst we were on a 2 week holiday. Having used another cattery in the past, I was just expecting basic care and housing. How wrong I was! Chester was lovingly cared for, had a clean and roomy run overlooking a lovely garden. We were so impressed and grateful to receive 3 text messages whilst away telling us how settled and happy Chester was. This was a lovely surprise and meant we could really enjoy our holiday without worrying. When I collected Chester, he was relaxed and happy. I would without hesitation recommend Oaklands Cattery - thanks so much Bridget.”

— Louise - Jul 31, 2012

“A really lovely clean friendly place to leave your cats. Both of my cats settled well. No hesitation in using again and recommending to others.”

— Jenny - May 23, 2012

“Our rather nervous Bengal was wonderfully well looked after during her first stay in a cattery. She’ll be back! Thank you to you all.”

— The Wyatts - Sep 22, 2011

“So pleased to find that you have opened up a new cattery again. It gave me peace of mind knowing that they were being well looked after as always and in such lovely new surroundings.”

— Sally - Sep 20, 2010

“My cats stayed at Bridget and Gren’s previous cattery. This cattery is absolutely beautiful and designed with every thought for the cats’ comfort and well-being. My cats would be happy to stay for a holiday any time.”

— Jan - Sep 10, 2010

“Many thanks Bridget for looking after Tigger especially his abscess. He’s fine, maybe a bit reticent in going out at night. Thanks again very much.”

— Lyn - Nov 23, 2017

“Our elderly cat Smudge (21 years old), stayed with Bridget and Grenville on a number of occasions in the last two years of her life and we couldn’t have been happier with the care she received. She needed tablets twice a day and this was never a problem. Caring for elderly cats can present its own set of challenges and Smudge did have to go to the vets twice during her stays but Bridget was brilliant and we trusted her completely to always know the right thing to do. We had to say goodbye to Smudge last week but if we have another cat in the future we will have no hesitation in coming back to Oaklands. Thank you both.”

— Jill - Oct 28, 2016

“Huge thanks to Bridget and Gren for looking after my precious pal Moses so well whilst I was away on my (long!) holiday. This included administering a vast number of eye-drops & taking him to the vets’ to get his repeat antibiotic injection. It’s wonderful to know his every need is met. Moses sends purr and will be back to see you for his long weekend in November.”

— Dianne - Oct 01, 2015

“Thank you for our lovely Xmas card and wonderful pictures of Puss! She thoroughly enjoyed her stay in September and was so relaxed and chirpy on the way home we need not have worried at all about leaving her. Puss will definitely be back to stay with you both again. Thank you.”

— Anita - Dec 16, 2014

“A massive thank you to Bridget & Grenville for so lovingly looking after our girls Molly & Magic during their 3 week stay. Their every whim was catered for & they came home relaxed & contented. The luxurious, light and airy accommodation is second to none and we highly recommend it, so much so we are happy to travel up from Devon!”

— Michael & Jenny - Feb 07, 2014

“Thank you so much for looking after Smudge and Baby Girl so well during our recent holidays. They come home relaxed and seem to get on even better. You can be assured of repeat bookings. In fact I’ve planned my next holiday around when the cattery can take my cats!”

— Leah - Jan 09, 2013

“Left my two boys with Bridget and Grenville for the first time. I was extremely upset about leaving them, as they are only 7 months old. How stupid was I? They seem to have loved it, came back home completely chilled and we have booked them in again for next year. A fantastic cattery with truly caring people running it x.”

— Trudie - Dec 04, 2012

“Massive thanks to Bridget and the team who looked after Brandy for an unforeseen amount of time. You made such a difference at a very stressful time and we are very grateful A* for service, understanding and care!!”

— Mandy - Jun 26, 2012

“Thank you Bridget and Grenville for looking after me so well, I enjoyed my holiday so much Mum said I could come again soon. Thank you so much, love Casey xxxx.”

— Casey the Cat - Mar 11, 2012

“We were so anxious about leaving our 3 cats while we went on holiday, especially Kitty who is blind and has several other health problems. We should have known that Gren and Bridget would care for them in their own unique way. It also helped to know they had a vet nurse on hand. The regular updates meant we could enjoy our holiday in the knowledge that our kits were well cared for and in such a fantastic environment. Thank you so much!!”

— Elaine & Dave - Jan 09, 2011

“My two cats had a wonderfully comfortable stay at Oaklands Cattery. They are very fussy but every need was catered for by Bridget and Gren who obviously love animals so much. I will not have any worries about having the cats staying here at anytime. Thank you.”
