When making a booking with us, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.

Listed below are our standard terms and conditions for Glebe Cottage Cattery in Surrey. Please note these Terms and Conditions are subject to change without notice.

Healthcare

• We cannot accept any cat without first seeing an up-to-date vaccination certificate against Feline Infectious Enteritis (FIV) and upper respiratory infections (cat flu). All vaccinations must be completed at least 10 days before your cat/cats visit us.

• We will be happy to administer prescribed medication. Please ensure that all medicine is clearly labelled with the name of cat and required amount to administer.
• I authorise Glebe Cottage Cattery to call a vet on my behalf if necessary and I being the owner will be liable to any charges incurred. Your cat’s health is always our main priority.

Safety

• We will not accept any unneutered male cats over six months old.
• Any collars left on your cat(s) are there at your own risk. Cats can injure themselves with collars and we would therefore prefer if you could remove them. Any collars left on cats are at the owners’ own risk.
• I agree to board my cat at Glebe Cottage Cattery on the understanding that although every possible care and attention will be given, Glebe Cottage Cattery accepts no liability.
• Only cats from the same home may share a chalet. However, if the welfare of any cats are affected e.g. Fighting, or cats not getting their share of the food, we reserve the right to separate.

Whenever feasible, we will seek the assistance of your personal veterinarian if they are located nearby; however, if this is not possible, we will engage the services of Crown Vets, Nutfield. Our highest priority is the wellbeing of your feline companion, and we will always seek veterinary consultation if we believe it to be in the best interest of your cat's health. In the unlikely event that your cat becomes severely ill, euthanasia may be performed at the discretion of the attending veterinarian.
• Owners will be charged for all booked days, regardless if stay is foreshortened. All days are chargeable, however if your cat is collected within the AM collection times we will not charge for that day.

Any cancellations must be made no later than 14 days before arrival to have the deposit refunded. The deposit is non-refundable if cancellation in made any later than this.
