Dobbs Boarding Cattery

We grew up with cats and kittens about the home – both pedigree and moggies. We bred Siamese and, occasionally, Persian kittens. This led to my mother establishing a small boarding facility as new owners often asked if she would mind the kittens at holiday times. I had always enjoyed helping run the cattery during my holidays from work. It was a natural progression to take over the running of the cattery after leaving my office job. From those small beginnings I expanded and upgraded the facilities to the current 30 purpose built PVCu houses from Pedigree Pens in the U.K. – the first in Ireland. My sister followed my lead 5 years ago taking early retirement, and we now share the cattery duties together. We do not have staff as we prefer the personal relationship with our guests and find this helps to settle even the most timid cat.
