Frequently Asked Questions About Chinese New Year Boarding

Will my cat be anxious during their first hotel stay?

Most cats need time to adjust to a new environment. Before boarding, you can help your cat get used to a carrier and bring a blanket with familiar scents from home. Maintaining their usual diet and feeding schedule during their stay can also reduce digestive upset and stress.

How far in advance should I book for Chinese New Year?

Chinese New Year is a peak season. It's recommended to inquire about availability as soon as you confirm your travel dates. If your cat has chronic illnesses, requires medication, is elderly, or is particularly anxious, please inform us of their specific care needs when booking. This will help us arrange a more suitable room type and care plan.

Do I need to get a health check before boarding?

It's advisable to observe your cat's appetite, energy levels, urination, and bowel movements before boarding. Also, check for any signs of sneezing, diarrhea, or vomiting. If your cat has been unwell recently, consult your veterinarian to assess if boarding is appropriate, to avoid exacerbating symptoms due to the change in environment.
