For peace of mind, please contact Kirsty as soon as you are aware of any illness or difference in your cat's behaviour (ie sleeping longer than usual, loose stools, sneezing or excessive vomiting) prior to arriving.
- If your cat(s) requires veterinary treatment, Kirsty Durrell has your full permission to contact her registered vet for advice. If treatment/medication is required, where possible, Kirsty will transport your cat(s) to your registered vet.
