We are at present offering a three day residential, intensive practical course on Cattery Management.
Our courses run from April to October, on a strictly one to one basis, covering the day to day running of a successful Boarding Cattery. Also taking you through all paperwork involved from first contact with customer to final invoice.

IS IT FOR ME?  If you are undecided whether a Boarding Cattery is for you, this course is ideal. A Boarding Cattery is a way of life, a 24 hour commitment not just a job!.

The nature of the course is quite intensive and students must be prepared for strenuous activity on the three day practical course. There will of course be lighter moments and a good sense of humour is always encouraged.

All meals, refreshments and accommodation are included in the cost of the course.

At the end of the course you will receive a 'Feline Advisory Bureau' recognised certificate of completion plus specimen documents and templates that we use in our cattery.
