When you make the decision to take your pet to a boarding environment for care, it is important you make it as easy as possible for your pet & of course for you. It’s also important to understand it doesn’t have to be unpleasant or distressing.
Some people still think it’s ‘cruel’ to leave their pet at a boarding kennels or cattery but that is far from the truth: people feel this way because they are trying to imagine how their pet will feel, based on human feelings, if left at a kennel or cattery.
Pet owners also feel unsure because they are the ones going away & wonder how their pet is coping.
We can’t stress enough the importance of the settling in process for all pets to ensure they feel happy, safe & content while in the care of the Boarding facility. It is not enough to think because someone operates a boarding kennel & cattery they know how to care properly for pets in a boarding environment. This is when experience is really beneficial – Kennel owners pay attention to each pet, understand how pets, individually, react & behave in a boarding environment. They notice the signs of discontent & do something about it to help each pet settle, relax & feel content & safe whilst in the kennel.
So, the best thing for your pet is to establish a relationship with a boarding place & take the time for your pet to adjust.
Pets do adjust & learn routines; they do get to know their temporary home whilst you are away. They see it time & time again: the first time a pet comes in they are slightly hesitant, the next time they come they remember so they relax much quicker, 3rd time “oh I know you – I can do want I want here?”.
This is one of the most endearing qualities of a pet – they are always happy to see you when you return.
