Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Recommended Cattery?
Our regular cattery, Dragon, is partly booked for a period we need to be away for this year.
Does anyone have any experience with other catteries?
I'm considering Capel Manor in Enfield, which was fine when I used it once about 12 years ago, but I don't know how things are now.
Any feedback welcome!

All I know is that you need to stay away from Elite cattery in Archway. They're dreadful, and you will get a sick cat back.
Dragon are really good, and I'll be watching this discussion, as I'm interested in alternatives too. Especially one where you can collect on a Sunday.

I am finally able to report on the cattery we ended up using last month because our regular one, Dragon Vet in Hornsey, was full.
Our 15 1/2 year-old cat stayed at Capel Manor in Enfield (a long way, I know) for three weeks, and we are extremely satisfied.
Price for 1 cat per day is £ 9 plus VAT. The individual "residences" are on 2 levels, with access to fresh air, and a little ramp to get from one level to the other. Wet food is provided, but any special diet has to be brought in, and they are happy to administer medication. We'd been particularly concerned about our cat, as he'd had a scan the day we went in and a suspected infection, so the cattery managers were left with instructions to start medication should the vet's report indicate they should. As we were going to be out of e-mail and mobile phone reach for much of our holiday, my sister was the contact point, and communications worked a treat. The cattery managers immediately alerted her when they thought another medical problem had arisen, and contacted their own vet.
The cat has come home completely unstressed, and I would happily use Capel Manor again. And, Anette, they are open on a Sunday morning.
