Owning and running a boarding cattery can be both rewarding and fulfilling and be one of the more profitable careers with cats. We offer a course specifically for anyone wanting to set up their own Cattery Business.
The work is very demanding with a lot of responsibility; this career will probably become a way of life, as it is most likely that you will need to live on site. Purchasing or building a cattery will require a large up-front financial outlay, so it is worth first giving careful consideration as to what you could reasonably expect as a return from your investment.
Thorough research into demand and supply in your area is very important, first ensure that there is sufficient business available in your area and adequate demand for boarding services. Whilst there will be plenty of rewards in looking after the cats, there is a lot of hard work involved in ensuring that their stay is stimulating and as stress free as possible.
For this type of business, it is crucial that you are healthy and fit; the day will involve a lot of walking around the cattery to check on cats as well as lifting and bending if you are doing any of the cleaning.
