Boarding Price List 2009/2010

Upper Ruxley Cattery was first established in 1988. The current owners took over the popular and well-respected cattery during 2002. The cattery takes in owner’s cats from a large catchment area of South East London and North West Kent, and is fully licensed by Dartford Borough Council in accordance with the Animal Boarding Establishment Act 1963. It is regularly inspected to ensure a high standard of accommodation and care is maintained.
