Hi Laura,

We aways used the cattery at Hornsey Vets,  http://hornseycattery.com 

Our cat was always spoilt rotten when he went there 

Good luck with the move

Hi I know someone who fosters cats and might take them in for you for a week. If you message me I can put you in touch.

Alternatively there is a cat hotel in Winchmore Hill http://www.longcroftcathotel.co.uk/ and a boarding cattery at Capel Manor, Enfield http://www.capelmanorkennels.com/. I haven't used either of them but have heard good things.

I also know a visiting catsitter who lives locally if anyone needs someone to feed cats while they are on holiday.

I'm also looking for someone to come and feed my cat (next week) -- would you be able to pass on the details of the visiting cat sitter who lives locally?

I agree with Hornsey Vets as a recommendation (they are also our cat's vet). 

However, I've needed an alternative when they've been booked up, and can also recommend Elm Tree in Enfield:  http://www.elmtreepethotel.co.uk/cattery/

Have heard good reports of The Elite Cattery.  It is at the North end of Archway Road.

Thanks very much for the recommendations, everyone.
Unfortunately with school holidays and short notice, almost all of them are full.

However, our own vet told us about London and Essex Kents Farm Kennels and Catteries who do have space so I think we'll go with them.

PoppyRed and Lauren - thanks ever so much for the offer of help. Ideally I'd like to use this opportunity to experience a cattery for the first time (for my sake as much as theirs!) in case we ever need it in future.

I'm moving from the ladders to Boundary Road, n22, and my current occasional cat feeder won't cover the new area so I may be in touch with the cat sitting group once we're settled. Thanks again.
