What makes Catnip Hill special?

Our guests enjoy their own generous personal space throughout their stay. We don’t confine them in cages and periodically let them out into a common area, as many boarding facilities do.

There are no dogs at Catnip Hill and therefore no barking or canine odors, which greatly reduces stress levels for the cats.

Our homelike building was designed to help our feline guests feel safe and relaxed. With its residential-style floors, walls, and windows, and its soothing, low-key atmosphere, Catnip Hill doesn’t look, smell, or sound like a kennel or a vet’s office.

A unique floor plan lets us see, hear, and talk to all our guests from the kitchen, so we always know who needs a chin rub or a snack.

Our country setting offers great wildlife viewing opportunities, and on rainy days, our resident dwarf hamsters provide “cat TV.”

Windows and skylights let in sunshine and warm breezes, while during the colder months, the ventilation system provides fresh air without causing drafts or chills.

Special access doors in each guest room allow frequent litter scooping, which keeps your cat clean and comfortable.

We offer an express checkout option: call us half an hour before you arrive to pick up your cat, and we’ll have kitty packed up and ready to go. Perfect after a long trip, when you’re tired and in a hurry to get home.

Freshly picked homegrown catnip is offered to all guests from April through November. (Catnip Hill really is on a hill, and we really do have lots of catnip.)
