Mission Cats In-Home Care

Boarding a cat can be stressful for them because they are being placed in an unfamiliar environment without their usual comforts and routines. Cats are creatures of habit and can become anxious when their surroundings change, which can lead to behavioral issues like hiding, aggression, or refusing to eat.

Additionally, boarding facilities may not be able to provide the same level of attention and care that a cat receives at home. Cats are generally solitary animals that prefer a quiet and peaceful environment. In a boarding facility, they may be exposed to noise, other animals, and unfamiliar people, which can cause them to feel overwhelmed and anxious.

Furthermore, cats are more susceptible to diseases and illnesses in boarding facilities due to exposure to other animals. Even if the facility has strict protocols in place, there is still a risk of transmission of diseases.

Overall, boarding a cat should be avoided if possible. Instead, arranging for a pet sitter or having a trusted friend or family member look after them in their home environment can help minimize stress and ensure that the cat receives the attention and care they need.

Cats thrive in familiar environments where they can maintain their daily routines. Unlike dogs and humans, cats do not typically enjoy new experiences. This is because cats are highly sensitive to changes in their environment, and sudden or unfamiliar stimuli can cause stress and anxiety in these animals.

To ensure the well-being of cats, it is essential to provide them with a stable and secure living space where they can feel safe and comfortable. This is especially important for indoor cats, as they rely entirely on their owners to meet their physical and emotional needs.

Owners can create a safe and stimulating indoor environment for their cats by providing them with toys, scratching posts, and other objects that encourage exploration and play. Regular playtime and interaction with their owners can also help to alleviate stress and promote a sense of security in these animals.

In summary, cats thrive in familiar environments where they can maintain their daily routines, and owners should take care to provide a secure and enriching living space for their feline companions.

Mission Cats In-Home care is an excellent solution for pet owners who want to ensure the well-being of their feline companions. There are several reasons why in-home care is the best option for cats:

1. Familiar environment: Cats are creatures of habit and thrive in familiar environments. By keeping them in their home, they are less likely to experience stress or anxiety associated with a new environment or separation from their owners.

2. Personalized care: In-home care allows for personalized care tailored to the specific needs of the cat. Each cat has unique requirements and preferences, and in-home care can provide individualized attention, including feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, and playtime.

3. Health and safety: Cats that stay at home are less likely to be exposed to diseases or infections that they may encounter in a boarding facility or veterinary clinic. Additionally, in-home care ensures that cats are safe and secure in their own environment, reducing the risk of injury or escape.

4. Regular monitoring: In-home care provides pet owners with regular updates on their cat’s well-being, including feeding habits, litter box usage, and any signs of illness or discomfort. This allows for early detection and treatment of any health issues that may arise.

Overall, Mission Cats In-Home Care offers a stress-free, safe, and comfortable environment for cats. This personalized care provides peace of mind for pet owners, knowing that their feline companions are receiving the attention and care they need in the comfort of their own home.

At our organization, we take great pride in our ability to work with cats that have complex personalities. Specifically, we welcome the opportunity to assist cats that may be shy or apprehensive around new individuals. If you happen to have a furry friend that fits this description, we kindly request that you notify us ahead of time so that we may approach your cat in the most suitable manner.

To minimize any discomfort or unease, we refrain from ringing the buzzer upon arrival and instead opt to call. Moreover, we make every effort to be mindful of your cat’s boundaries, especially in the case of apprehensive felines. Although we do require visual confirmation that your cat is well, we will respect their hiding preferences and encourage you to inform us of their favorite spots.

We understand the importance of respecting your cat’s needs and, therefore, do not linger in their space for more than necessary. We prioritize their comfort and provide them with their space as soon as possible.

By exposing your shy cat to safe and caring humans, you may help them feel more at ease in the future. This can be crucial if they require medication or care from someone other than yourself. There is no time like the present to help your cat become more comfortable around new people, and it will undoubtedly enhance their quality of life, as well as your own.

We take great pleasure in keeping our clients updated on their furry friends’ progress with our photo updates, which we can send to you via text or email for a nominal fee of $2 per cat, per visit. For our clients who prefer more frequent updates, we are happy to oblige, as we find joy in sharing your pets’ progress and pictures.

We understand that technology can sometimes fail, or we may not send an update as promptly as usual, but please rest assured that we will never miss a visit with your kitties. In the unlikely event of a missed update, we will ensure that another update follows soon.

We value your privacy and understand that you may prefer to receive fewer or no updates during your time away. As a Mission Cats client, you have the flexibility to update your preferences on update format and frequency in your client profile. Our goal is to make your time away as comfortable, stress-free, and worry-free as possible for all parties involved.

Please inform us once you have returned home, should it be earlier than planned. We are always willing to continue our visits with your kitties should you experience a delay, provided that we receive sufficient advance notice.
