When you board at Evergreen Cat Lodge, your cat will stay in one of our 32 suites and will be lovingly cared for by Susan & Mike Nocket, owners of the Lodge, along with Cat Lodge managers Jenny and Krystyna. If you are lucky enough to be a multiple cat family, your 2nd and 3rd cats may share a suite for an additional fee. However, only cats from the same owner are permitted to share a suite. Your cats will never come in physical contact with other boarders. Be sure to check out the picture gallery on the About The Lodge page to see some of our suites. We are committed to providing the best cat boarding service available in the Denver area.

Prior to boarding, we will require verification that your cat has received the required rabies and feline distemper (FVRCP) immunizations. Your cat(s) must arrive in individual carriers. Upon arrival, every boarder is given a quick examination to ensure that there are no visible health issues - E.g. fleas, respiratory infection or ring worm. You will be asked to fill out and sign our Boarding Agreement and send it to us prior to arrival along with proof of vaccination (your vet can email it to us).

After check-in, you will accompany your cat to its private suite. We notice that our guests adjust much faster to their new surroundings if their owners are able to spend some time helping them settle in. We also encourage you to bring some things from home. Your cat will appreciate a familiar toy or two, maybe a scratching post, and many cats are comforted by one of your worn shirts (they love your scent). You may also bring along a cat brush - we don't think it's hygienic to share a brush among our boarders, so if you want us to casually brush your loved ones you need to supply a brush. There's no charge for brushing, but please note that this is casual brushing - not a professional grooming that removes matted hair.

Once your cat has settled in and you've said goodbye, rest assured that you have left them in good hands. We make a point to give a little extra attention to new arrivals to monitor their acclimation to their new surroundings. We try our best to keep your cat on its regular schedule. When you fill in the Boarding Agreement, you tell us about your cat's feeding schedule - once, twice, three times a day or free feeding - wet or dry food. We have premium cat food available at no charge, but we encourage you to supply enough of your cat's regular food to last for the stay. It's actually easier for us to feed all of our guests the same food, but we think it's more important to keep each boarder on its regular diet. A change of diet can cause problems in even the healthiest of cats.

We love all cats and welcome special needs guests. We inquire on the Boarding Agreement about any medications that your cat may be taking. We will administer one oral/topical medication or dietary supplement daily at no additional charge. There will be an additional charge for all injections and the administration of subcutaneous fluids, plus each additional oral/topical medication or dietary supplement beyond the first one. Please note, the Pet Animal Care and Facilities Act (PACFA) requires that all prescription medications be in their original container with the pet's name and dosage instructions printed on the label.

We also clean the litter and change the water twice a day.

It's been our experience that this style of cat boarding is well tolerated by even the most shy and timid of cats. We do our best to ensure that each and every boarding experience is a positive one for both pet and owner.

We hope to see you soon at Denver's premier cat-only boarding facility!

Care of Sick Boarders - Agreement for Veterinary Services

We hope it never happens, but if one of our boarders appears ill we will seek veterinarian attention. If we deem it an emergency we will take your cat directly to a veterinarian and then either the veterinarian or we will contact you. We will attempt to contact you using the contact information you provided at check-in. By signing the Boarding Agreement, you have agreed to pay for any necessary veterinarian services. We will attempt to contact your regular veterinarian if practical, otherwise we will utilize one of the local vets that we have a strong relationship with.

 

Flea Free Environment

We maintain a flea free environment. Our clients expect it and our boarders deserve it. If, during our check-in examination or at a later time, we observe evidence of fleas on your cat, we will provide your cat with a flea treatment and take steps to eliminate any fleas from its boarding suite. You will be charged an additional fee for this service.
