Testimonials

Our furry friends have had such a good time staying with us, they told their servants to tell us! See what they said below…


Spooky, the elder gentleman of the family!

Spooky & Gang!

“Our four cats are regular guests at The Firs, which we have used for over 30 years. Nicola and her staff care for all the cats as if they were their own, with love, cuddles, comfort and plenty of food. They get to know all their little ways which is important to us. Nothing is too much trouble, and the Facebook photographs are very reassuring, seeing the cats so happy. We would not wish to send them anywhere else!”

Dave & Dawn


Arby & McGee

“Having two lively and demanding Bengals, it’s very important to me that the cattery owner understands the sometime complex needs of this loving yet very rewarding breed. Nicola has gone out of her way to make sure that my fur-babies are content and looked after when they visit The Firs Cattery, ensuring they always have the largest pen available for their stays. My boys come home happy and relaxed, having enjoyed their holiday at The Firs as much as we enjoyed ours! It’s a huge comfort to me, knowing that they are cared for with as much love and attention as I would give them. I especially love the photo updates to reassure me that all is well while we are away. Thank you to Nicola and all the staff!”

Mowgli…no room for the others!

Mowgli, White Cat, Sooty & Simba

“My cats have been boarding at the firs cattery for around twenty years. I have always been impressed with the high level of care they receive.  Nicola took over The Firs in July 2019. It is always concerning when a new owner comes in as you worry about what they will be like. I board four cats which all have different personalities and needs. One in particular is very difficult to handle. Nicola and her team were hands on from the beginning and I felt confident leaving my cats with them. They take a personal approach caring for each cat and their owner ensuring that individual requirements are met.  The cattery itself is a home from home in lovely surroundings. I have great confidence in recommending The Firs Cattery as a safe and caring environment for your special feline friends and companions.”

Aussie

Aussie

“Our 6 year old much loved cat Aussie has stayed at The Firs for short and long stays since he was a kitten. We feel very confident the care he gets is wonderful. His pen is large and spotlessly clean with heated beds and toys and he obviously enjoys the food at his holiday home. This stops us worrying about him when we are away. He tends to wander when we are not at home and he is far too precious to us to leave without the high-quality care Nicola and her team provide. We have no hesitation in recommending the Firs.”

Herc

Argo & Herc

“As with any change there is always a seed of worry but more so when your precious fur babies are involved.  When Nicola took over at The Firs we decided to visit unannounced. We arrived as anxious cat parents, but we left as friends. From the first minute Nicola instilled her commitment, love and enthusiasm on us and this has continued to thrive and grow during her first year and I’ve no doubt will continue to be the case for many years to come. I would have no doubt recommending The Firs and we happily travel further afield to know the cats are safe, loved and extremely well cared for.”

Diane & Julian


Elsa

“Elsa had no complaints at all following her stay at The Firs Cattery.  She is a fussy pussy but enjoyed herself no end.  Plenty of toys and space to play.  The Firs Cattery pods are twice the size of where she has stayed before and for us it was local and handy with easy parking too.  Thank you to the staff for looking after her so well.”
