Cat boarding
Cats in the City Cattery
Our cattery has been established for over 11 years and is a favourite with many of our clients. Its success is attributed to the safe and caring environment we provide for feline visitors and the peace of mind we provide to cat owners when they are away from home. Each one of our veterinary practices has dedicated cat boarding facilities with extra capacity available during peak periods.
At Adelaide Animal Hospital in Trinity Gardens we have four large cat runs available throughout the year. During peak times such as school holidays, long weekends and from December to January we can also accommodate a further 14 cats. Burnside Veterinary Centre has boarding facilities for 12 cats and Prospect Road Veterinary Hospital can accommodate 30 cats at anytime throughout the year.
Why you should board your friends with us
A comfortable home away from home... Bedding, litter trays, cat bowls and food are provided in a friendly and safe environment. You may bring your cat's favourite bedding and toys. It is a great idea to label all items and we request that you only bring the essentials!
Continued high quality of care... If your cat is on medication we will continue treatment as instructed. Make sure you bring your cat's medication with you when you drop him/her off.
Feeding twice a day... we feed all cats morning and night as per your instructions.
Premium cat food... cats are fed both dry food and tinned food. If your pet is on a prescription diet or food or has special dietary needs, please bring their food with you on admission.
Peace of mind... if your cat falls ill whilst you are away, you have complete peace of mind that he/she will receive the best care throughout their stay. Our healthcare team including qualified veterinary nurses and veterinarians are always nearby and on hand to help.
Just like they are our own... our cattery carers are passionate about felines. You can be assured your friend will receive plenty of attention and cuddles during their stay with us.
12 point physical examination
We are passionate about feline health care and helping our friends live long and healthy lives (all nine of them!). All cats who board with us receive a complimentary 12 point physical examination during their stay. When you come to collect your cat, our receptionist or cattery carer will provide you with a checklist detailing the findings of the examination.
Enjoy your time away whilst knowing your cat is in our excellent care.

Boarding Fees
Please contact us for more information on boarding fees. Our prices include food, cat litter and bedding. We also have a discounted rate if you need to board more than one cat at a time.
A safe environment for all visitors
To ensure the wellbeing of all cats, vaccinations must be current. If your cat has not been vaccinated by one of our practices, we must sight proof of vaccination before boarding your feline companion. For the comfort and protection of others, we also request that your cat is up to date with flea and worm prevention.
Checking in and Checking out
You can check your cat in and out on any day of the week if your cat is boarding at Adelaide Animal Hospital. Check in and out is available on Monday - Saturday during practice opening hours at Prospect Road Veterinary Hospital and Burnside Veterinary Centre.
