hello all!

i posted a long while ago about vet suggestions for my cat and someone recommended alamo feline health center. we decided to take my cats there and i loved it! i love that they specifically treat felines. it makes me feel good!

anyway, the family and i are planning a week long vacation and i am considering boarding my cats there and wondered if anyone had experience with boarding there.

we are considering one of their rooms since we have more than one cat and would prefer them to be together.

i would love to hear what everyone has to say! thanks!

Can't help your regarding experience yet with them, but thank you for the lead for our cat's care. I like that they will be taken care of by a feline specialist and won't have to deal with a waiting room full of dogs & doggy smells. That seems to amp up their anxiety in a hurry.
This sounds expensive though, how are their rates for visits, procedures, vaccines? Do they give you a quantity discount when you bring them in together?
Eager to learn more. Thanks!

We've used a service that came to the house every other day during our typical two to three week vacations. They were great and our three cats seemed to do well. Unfortunately our service quit the business as the owner now has a toddler and doesn't have the time to walk dogs or take care of cats. I've personally never seriously considered boarding my cats, and I've had cats for some forty years, so I can't recommend a cat kennel. I have asked my ex-cat sitter for a recommendation but haven't heard from her.

Unfortunately I cannot attest to Alamo Feline boarding because we have never needed to board our 'babies' But, we have been taking our cats there to see Dr. Norsworthy for over 10 years, and I can honestly tell you that your feline will not get better care anywhere else! My wife and I did get to checkout the boarding rooms, and it is AWESOME for cats. They are free to roam, and staff will go up there to play with them throughout the day. It might be a bit pricey, but totally worth it if you want the best for your cat.

No opinion on the service your mentioning, but Becker takes real good care of my dog when I go out of town. Ive got two cats, and I just leave them at home, I have a big automatic feeder, and a big automatic waterer, Two big litter boxes and they are good to go. Cats take care of them selfs really

Thank you for this! I went to visit it and loved it! It's so comforting to know that they care for my cats. They are truly my babies and I just worry when they're away from home.
