Our pets are truly an extension of our family and often we consider them more as that additional child or family member and leaving them whilst we go on our travels can be emotional and a worry. The RSPCA and Cats Protection offer some useful advice to make choosing your boarding kennel or cattery less of a worry and what you should look out for to know that your pet will receive the love and care that they deserve and you would want for them whilst you are away. Follow the links below for some useful advice so that you can travel with peace of mind that your pets are in good care.
