The Purr-fect Staycation: A Day in the Life at Whiskers Luxury Cat Boarding

Leaving your feline friend behind when you travel can be tough. But at Whiskers Luxury Cat Boarding in Georgetown, Texas, the experience isn't about being caged; it's about a custom-designed, cage-free "staycation" that cat owners rave about. Here’s a peek at the pampered life your cat leads from sunrise to sunset.

Morning: The Ultimate Refresh, Gourmet Dining, Meds, and Cuddles

The day at Whiskers begins with impeccable hygiene and the preparation of a delicious meal. The facility prides itself on a rigorous routine that ensures a pristine environment.

Morning Room Refresh: Every morning, while guests observe from a safe perch, each kitty's room is meticulously cleaned. This includes wiping down shelves and cat trees, sweeping the floors, de-furring blankets (and laundering them as needed), and cleaning windows for clear viewing. Sanitized Restrooms: Every litter box is dumped, sanitized, and refilled with fresh litter.

7:30 AM: Breakfast is Served. Food is provided in clean, "whisker friendly" bowls. Attendants ensure every cat receives their specific diet (wet food, dry food, or specialty meals) in their own private dining area.

Medication Administration: As part of the essential morning routine, any required medications are carefully administered by trained staff.

Morning Cuddles & Attention: After breakfast every cat receives dedicated pets and cuddle time, ensuring they feel loved and secure before the day's activities begin.

After Breakfast Routine: Following their meal and cuddles, kitties have a choice of entertainment. Some prefer to climb up high on the multi-level perches to settle in for some relaxing "Kitty TV." Others are captivated by the wild birds fluttering at the feeders just outside their window, or entertained by Whiskers' own lively gerbils and finches.

Mid-day: Enrichment and "Postcard" Moments

Mid-day is all about stimulation tailored to a cat's natural curiosity, health management, and capturing those picture-perfect moments for the folks back home.

12:00 PM: Snack Time. A light mid-day snack keeps energy levels steady.

Mid-Day Meds: Any necessary midday medications are administered with precision and care.

Playtime, Brush Outs & Exercise: Cats receive individual attention and exercise sessions. For the playful guest, this might mean chasing the elusive peacock feather wand, an adventure involving learning to run on the cat wheel, or simply enjoying a relaxing brush out.

Mid-Day Cuddles & Love: The highly trained cattery attendants carve out dedicated time again for pets, cuddles, and love for each individual cat, reinforcing the bond and reducing stress.

Photo Sessions & Postcards: This is when the camera comes out! Staff capture candid, adorable shots of the cats enjoying their amenities. Families who request the premium update service receive a personalized "postcard" containing six photos and a nice update about their pet’s day, sent via email.

Reviews consistently praise the staff's dedication to understanding each cat's personality, ensuring that "playtime" isn't a scheduled chore but a personalized interaction full of love and attention.

Afternoon & Evening: Wind Down and Dreamland

As the afternoon progresses, a sense of calm settles over the facility, aided by soothing ambient sounds and final health checks.

Afternoon Refreshments & Nap Time: In the afternoon, all kitty water bowls are thoroughly cleaned and refilled, to ensure cleanliness and fresh-tasting water for optimal hydration. This is also prime napping time. Many kitties drift off to sleep, often lulled by the quiet spa music that plays softly throughout Whiskers, while continuing to watch the relaxing "Kitty TV," wild birds, finches, or gerbils.

Litter Box Maintenance: To maintain the highest standards of hygiene, all litter boxes are scooped every morning, afternoon, and evening, and more frequently if needed throughout the day.

6:00 PM: Dinner Time & Evening Meds. A hearty evening meal signals the end of the active day. Evening medications are administered concurrently to maintain the daily schedule.

Vigilant Care & Reporting: Throughout the entire day, Whiskers' highly trained cattery attendants keep a watchful eye on their kitties. They diligently mark charts to record vital information, including bathroom activity, how much of their meals were eaten, and important comments that will ensure the kitty's stay is as pleasant and comfortable as possible. This meticulous charting ensures that every need is met and any potential health changes are noticed immediately.

Evening Cuddles & Lap Time: Before final lights out, each cat receives a final round of individualized attention, including evening cuddles and lap time for those who enjoy a cozy end to their day.

Nightly Wind Down: Suites are prepared for the evening. After a full day of activity, guests settle into their plush bedding, often watching the last few moments of "Kitty TV" before drifting off to sleep to the sound of soothing spa music. Whiskers provides a transparent, comfortable, and stimulating alternative to traditional boarding.
