Does My Cat Need Kitty Daycare in Belleville, IL?
As cats generally sleep for about 12 to 18 hours daily, it may be tempting to let them lounge away on the couch while you're not home. However, there are some cats who would benefit from kitty daycare:
- Older cats — If your cat is now considered a senior, it may be preferable to have someone watch over them. Cats mask pain and can hide symptoms of even grave illness. Leaving them in a kitty daycare will ensure somebody is there to help them if anything happens.
- Cats with health issues — Likewise, if your cat needs medication or is recovering from a recent injury, it might be ideal to leave them with knowledgeable cat experts at a kitty daycare who know how to give medication gently.
- Kittens and "teenage" cats — That noisy clowning around your kitten does that wake you up in the middle of the night? They're they do them in the daytime too. While a still-spry cat a few years old knows how to play safely, kittens are still figuring out how to be responsible cats and may knock over plants or other things that both could harm them and destroy your property. It is not advisable to leave a kitten by themselves for more than 4-8 hours. At Cats Only in Belleville, IL, we have a dedicated playroom where your fluffy friend can get into all the mischief they want safely.
- Anxious and/or destructive cats — Separation anxiety in cats can cause them to scratch at doors go to the bathroom on your floor, eat too much, and/or vomit. It may even result in them trying to get outside. Entrusting them to a kitty daycare can help soothe them.
Most vets state it's never a good idea to leave any cat alone for more than 12 hours. If you think a kitty daycare in Belleville, IL is the best idea for your fluffy friend, feel free to reach out to us or schedule a time to come by and tour our facilities.
Questions to Ask When Picking a Kitty Daycare in Belleville, IL
What Are the Facilities Like at the Kitty Daycare?
You don't want to send your cat to a kitty daycare if they're just going to be constricted to a small cage. We house felines in our standard-, queen-, or king-sized suites. All of them come with a litter box (and privacy curtain), scratching posts, various cat beds, a lot of surfaces to climb and jump on, and a window perfect for bird watching. At our kitty daycare, your cat will be free to slumber, dart around, climb and explore as they see fit.
Will They Be in the Vicinity of Dogs?
While cats get stressed out when they're left alone at home, they'll be even more stressed out if they have to listen to barking dogs all day. At Cats Only's Belleville, IL kitty daycare, we abide by our name: there are no dogs allowed. Your cats will be able to nap tranquilly and won't be motivated to find a place to hide.

A clean litter box is vital to cats, and we clean each litter box twice daily. We also clean all of our suites extensively between visits, so you're cat won't pick up any viruses from other cats during their stay.
