Does My Cat Need Kitty Daycare in Collinsville, IL?

As cats generally sleep for around 12 to 18 hours a day, you may think it's ok to let them sleep in their cat gym while you're gone. However, cats who may need kitty daycare include:

• Senior cats — If your cat is now considered a senior, it may be best to have someone make sure they're alright. Cats mask pain and can hide symptoms of even serious infections. Taking them to a kitty daycare will help ensure they get necessary medical attention when they need it.
• Cats with health issues — Likewise, if your cat requires medication or is recovering from a recent surgery, it might be a good idea to leave them with capable and caring professionals at a kitty daycare who know how to administer medication in a manner that keeps your cat relaxed.
• Kittens and "teenage" cats — Those annoying antics your young cat gets up to that shave hours off your nightly sleep? They're doing the same thing when you're not home. While a 4 or 5 year old cat knows how run around without causing damage, kittens are still learning about the world and may knock over vases or other items that both could hurt them and break your property. Experts say you should not leave a kitten alone for over 4-8 hours. At Cats Only in Collinsville, IL, we have a dedicated playroom where your feline family member can get into all the mischief they want without doing any damage or hurting themselves.
• Anxious and/or destructive cats — Separation anxiety in cats can lead them to destroy your furniture eliminate outside of the litter box, eat too little, and/or vomit. It may even result in them trying to get outside. Taking them to a kitty daycare can help pacify them.

As a general rule, it's never a good idea to leave any cat by themselves for more than half a day. If you think a kitty daycare in Collinsville, IL is right for your feline family member, feel free to give us a call or schedule a time to come by and tour our space.
