As you plan and prepare for your next vacation or holiday away from home, why should your feline best friend feel left out? That is exactly what luxury cat accommodations are for, and Sydney has plenty of options for your furry friend. When we do not hesitate to spend tons on our cat’s upkeep, health and care, why should we not prioritise their safety, well being and happiness during the holidays?


For our doted family members, nothing short of a good cat boarding facility makes the cut, where they can be under the watchful eye of someone ensuring their security 24/7 and our peace of mind and sanity. A luxury and long term cat boarding in Sydney not only ensures that our beloved cats get lots of love and care (in the form of belly rubs and scratches, et al) but are also equipped with all necessary facilities like their own individual room, clean water, fresh air, and lots of play toys to keep them stimulated and hiding nooks for when they want to retreat.


Here are a few tips by which you can ensure your cat has a wonderful vacation and stay at a luxury cat boarding in Sydney:

  1. Make sure you visit the cat boarding before the actual boarding. This will not only help you in checking that all facilities are up to date and as per your requirement but also help your cat build a sense of comfort and familiarity with the space, which will eventually lead to them feeling at home in their new surroundings.

  2. Do a day or overnight trial, if possible. This will put all your fears to rest about whether your cat will be able to adjust in the new space. This will also allow your cat to familiarise itself with the new space and socialise with the caretakers and other boarders.

  3. Ensure you get your cat used to the idea of a cat carry enclosure or crate. Keep it in a space they are familiar with and make sure to fill it with their favourite blanket or toy and a treat.

  4. Inform the staff of the luxury cat boarding in Sydney about your cat’s schedule and keep them in the loop about any allergies that your cat might have or any medications that they have to take, as well as their food preferences and habits and timings.

  5. When leaving for the long term cat boarding in Sydney, pack all your cat’s necessities well ahead of time, so that you can restock or refill anything if needed. Do not forget their cat bed, blanket, favourite toys, medications, any specific food or grooming tools.


Pet parents have a different relationship with dogs as opposed to cats. We are closer to our feline friends because of their nature to cuddle as well as maintain their distance for independence. This is probably why pet parents with cats find it difficult to leave their furry pets behind when going on a vacation.


But you can stop worrying now. With an upbeat luxury cat boarding like Balmain Cat Boarding, you can be at peace with your cat in our care.
