Cat Boarding

---

---

Perfect for weekends away or for safety of your cat during renovations.

We have several purpose-built “cat condos” suitable for short to medium term boarding. Our staff can provide medication as required including treatments for hyperthyroidism, diabetes, kidney failure, heart problems, skin disease & urinary tract medical conditions. The cat area is completely separate from the general hospital area to eliminate risk of infection & stress from hospitalized dogs. We allow plenty of access to our cat only examination room which has a scratching & climbing post with feline friendly pheromones in it. Our nurses love cuddling the boarding cats.

We require all boarding cats to be up to date with at least an F3 (cat flu & enteritis) vaccination within the past 12 months.

Book well in advance during busy holiday periods like Christmas, New Year, Easter & school holidays.

If any cat should become ill while with us they can be treated & transferred to the hospitalisation area of Dandenong Ranges Veterinary Centre.

Bushfire policy: Please note that Dandenong Ranges Veterinary Centre will close on Code Red Bushfire days. As 24 hours’ notice is typically given for Code Red days, we ask that you provide an alternative contact who can be available to collect your pet from the clinic the day before a Code Red day to ensure that they can be safely relocated. If no-one is able to collect your cat then they will be left at DRVC and the clinic will NOT be attended on Code Red days. In the event of an emergency, every effort will be made to evacuate your pet however, in a life threatening situation (for example bushfire, internal fire or building collapse) staff safety will take priority & your pet may be left unattended at the surgery for some time (& may perish).
