How do I make a reservation?

How and when do I pay?
Prices are found under the Rooms tab.
We accept cash, credit and personal checks. For those boarding less than 14 days, payment is due upon pick up. For those staying 15-29 days, payment is due in advance, on day of drop off.
For those paying a monthly fee (long term boarders), payment for the first month is due at time of drop off. Scheduled monthly payments will be made (via PayPal) every 30 days thereafter for each month your cat will be staying with us. After the first month, you will be reimbursed for any days that you do not use (your last month must be pre-payed, balances can not be carried and paid at pick up).
