HISTORYCattery near Blackburn South, 3130

D.B. Boarding was first started when a young vet nurse named Devon Bayly saw the need for a cat boarding service amongst the veterinary clientele. Since those early days almost nothing has changed. The idea of providing a safe, comfortable, caring environment for cats when they are away from home remains strong. 

ETHOS

We strive to provide unparalleled care for your cat. Our team takes the time to get to know each cat and fulfill their specific requirements. Whether your cat loves to lounge in the sun, receive chin rubs and head butts, prefer to keep to themselves, or enjoy chasing water droplets around, we've got it all covered. Our experienced staff carefully observe every boarder and remain alert for any signs of discomfort or trouble. Whether it's providing extra cuddles, trying a new food flavour, or arranging a veterinary check-up, we guarantee that our clients' beloved felines are in competent hands. 

FOOD

At our facility, we understand that cats thrive on routine and consistency, which is why we recommend maintaining their regular diet as much as possible. For this reason, we ask our clients to provide us with their cat's dietary preferences through our Admission Form. 

Our facility provides premium feline diets, such as Advance, Hills Science and Hills Prescription Diets, Royal Canin Veterinary diets, and an extensive range of Whiskas soft food to cater to your cat's dietary needs. 

We understand that some cats can be fussy eaters. To ensure their comfort, we kindly request that clients bring along their cat's preferred diets. 

MEDICATION

Our team is proficient in taking care of cats with special requirements, such as those requiring medication for hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure, or kidney and urinary tract issues. Our on-site veterinary clinic situated within the cattery ensures that any problems or emergencies are addressed instantaneously by our duty veterinarian. 

 

For cats with special needs that require medication, a medication surcharge of $1.50-$3.00 per day applies. We also cater to diabetic cats at D.B. Boarding. For more information, please get in touch with us by phone or email.
