Cat sitting in Liverpool, in your cat’s own home

Why cats do better at home

Cats are territorial. Their sense of security comes from the place as much as the people — the smell of their own home, the spot they sleep in, the route they patrol, the sounds they know.

Take that away and you take away the thing that was keeping them calm. Some cats manage it. Plenty do not, and their owners only find out when they come home to a cat that has stopped eating or stopped coming out.

Cat sitting keeps all of it. Your cat stays where it lives. I come to them.

What happens at every visit

Feeding

I follow your routine exactly — wet, dry, raw, prescription, or a mix of them. Same food, same bowls, same times. Fresh water topped up every visit.

Litter trays

Cleaned and refreshed at every visit, without exception. Cats are clean animals, and a dirty tray is one of the quickest ways to end up with a house-soiling problem you are still fixing weeks later.

Time with your cat

Some cats want attention the moment I am through the door. They want playing with, stroking, and somebody to sit near. Others want to watch me from the top of the stairs and come down in their own time.

I let the cat decide. I will not drag a nervous cat out from under a bed so I can say I saw it.

Health and behaviour checks

I watch how your cat is eating, drinking, moving and behaving. If something looks off — appetite dropped, hiding more than usual, changes in the litter tray, any sign of discomfort — I tell you straight away rather than waiting to see if it settles.

Medication

I give tablets, liquid medication, eye drops and injections, including insulin for diabetic cats. Insulin injection visits are £17 per visit and any other medication is £5 per visit on top of the visit. We go through the exact routine at your free consultation so nothing is left to guesswork.

Photos and updates

You get a message and a photo after every visit. You will know your cat has been seen, fed and is settled, without having to ask.

Your home

I bring the post in, draw curtains, alternate a light, and put the bins out if it falls while you are away. An empty house looks less empty.

Cats I look after most

Nervous and timid cats

The ones who hide from visitors. I do not force it, and I do not rush. Most of them come round within a few visits, and some of my longest-standing customers started with a cat who would not come out at all.

Older cats

Set in their routines, more sensitive to change, and more likely to have something going on that needs watching. Kidney disease, thyroid problems and arthritis all need the routine kept exactly as it is.

Cats on medication

Twice-daily tablets, eye drops, insulin injections. Cats who cannot go to a cattery easily and cannot miss a dose.

Multi-cat households

Where getting three cats into carriers and across the city is a bad morning for everyone. Seeing them all at home is simpler and calmer.

Cats with outdoor access

Who would spend an entire cattery stay shut indoors, losing the part of the day they like most.
