    We've used Shedding Oaks for all our cattery needs since our cats were kittens. Janet and her family are so caring, both our cats come back very happy and chilled after their stay. They are very relaxed and very thorough in their approach. Reluctant to recommend as they are already very busy, but can't recommend highly enough!

    Lovely cattery. Managed to get our cats in over Christmas after a last minute cancellation. I didn't get to see the cattery itself due to covid restrictions, but the owner is delightful. Very friendly and was extremely thorough with our cats. She made sure we had the right paperwork and was happy to give one of our cats his regular medication. Our two gorgeous cats were returned very chilled and happy. Their coats were clean and they looked well cared for. We have booked our cats in for another short stay as we are moving house, and don't want to traumatise them too much on moving day. I would highly recommend this cattery
