Question 1

How many visits a day does my cat need?

Accepted Answer

One visit a day is enough for a lot of confident, healthy adult cats on dry food who are used to their own company. Two visits a day is the better choice if your cat has wet food, needs medication, is very young, very old, unwell, anxious, or simply hates being on her own. It also doubles the chance of actually laying eyes on an outdoor cat, and it halves the gap between meals. If you're not sure, ring us and describe your cat. We'll tell you which one she needs, and it isn't always the more expensive one.

Question 2

How do you get into my house?

Accepted Answer

Before you travel we arrange a time to come round and collect your keys in person. It takes about twenty minutes and it's when we go through everything, where the food is, which cat is which, the alarm code, the quirk with the back door, your vet's details. Keys are kept securely and are never labelled with your name or address. When you're home you can have them straight back, or we can hold them for next time, whichever you prefer, and we'll confirm it in writing either way.

Question 3

Which areas do you cover?

Accepted Answer

Witney and roughly eight miles around it. That includes Carterton, Brize Norton, Eynsham, Ducklington, Curbridge, Standlake, Stanton Harcourt, Minster Lovell, North Leigh, Long Hanborough, Freeland, Bampton, Woodstock and Burford, along with the villages in between. There's no travel supplement anywhere in that area, the price is the price. If you're just outside it, ring us anyway. The map isn't a wall.

Question 4

What does it cost?

Accepted Answer

£13 a day for one visit, or £24 a day for two. That covers up to three cats, because the second and third are mostly just extra bowls. Four or more cats is £2 per extra cat per day. Medication is included. Home care, post, bins, curtains, plants, is included. There is no travel supplement anywhere in our area, and no booking fee.

Question 5

How and when do I pay?

Accepted Answer

Payment is by bank transfer, in full, before you travel. Once we've confirmed your dates we'll send you an invoice with our details on it, and we ask for it to be settled before your first visit. It means there's no admin waiting for you when you land, and nothing outstanding while you're away. If your trip gets extended, we'll invoice for the extra days separately when you're home. If you come back early, we'll refund the days we didn't use.
