How guests settle in

Calming Environment Galore…

It’s absolutely so vital that guests feel comfortable, secure, tended to and welcome at Noosa Country Cat Hotel.

Every effort will be made to ease guests into their holiday environment, starting by offering absolute peace and privacy at first, allowing play and wandering to happen at guest discretion and leisure.

Amy uses several animal calming techniques to ensure her guests have a lovely memorable stay, including placement of fresh locally grown catnip and cat grass in the outdoor enclosure which is high in folic acid and wonderful for foragers. Amy also likes to play lovely calming music, the sort of laid back tunes you would expect to hear during a relaxed Sunday brunch at a fancy café. Amy uses a gentle, quiet approach with her guests, she builds trust and friendship through affection and play.

Amy has a background in animal care including wildlife, livestock and her own domestic pets. She has some brilliant ways of enriching little lives to prevent boredom and stimulate play and emotional wellbeing including some really clever cat toys and even book corners to use as facial rub posts.

Everything within the hotel can be washed, spot cleaned, sterilised or replaced, this means guests can ‘go for it’ if climbing up a curtain is what they prefer to do at home. Whatever makes a guest feel comfortable and happy is what Amy will strive to offer. Amy can be found most days laying on the floor with her guests, sometimes taking photos, other times simply allowing them the closeness of human interaction, play, affection or warmth… there’s nothing like a purring guest to let us know we are on the right track.

Catios

Outdoor Enclosures

Our outdoor enclosures (Catios) are something we are really proud of… drenched in lovely warm morning or afternoon sun with plenty of nooks and crannies to hide and snooze, they are the ultimate in guest relaxation.

Farmhouse Room

Our Farmhouse Room Standard Accommodation Catio takes in beautiful paddock and pine tree views. Completely predator proofed and secure with Cat Nets brand white netting and an airlock entry, it is as safe as it can possibly be.

Within this space are plenty of soft rugs and cushions to laze about on, but also a floor to ceiling climbing tree for the more daring guests. We also have multiple mid and high level snoozing areas and baskets for hiding away, all with plush washable bedding.

Cat Grass and Catnip is also on offer for those who enjoy it, with continual refreshing and rotating between planter boxes. It’s here where guests can make as much mess as they wish, leave the cleaning up to us!

Views from the catio are of the paddock and our resident chickens, but resident birdlife are also in full view (and in abundance) from this area. If guests are lucky they will also encounter our lovely gentle Suri Alpaca girls who make a gentle and soothing humming noise when they are happy, or one of our friendly Australian White Ewes.

Farmhouse Cottage

We also have a separate outside enclosure for exclusive use by our Farmhouse Cottage guests where they can immerse themselves in all the farm has to offer, experiencing manicured lawn beneath their little paws, views for days and up-close, ground-level interactions with our feathered friends and farm animals, as well as free ranging peafowl who are frequently seen wandering through the property.

The Tiny Home

Our Tiny Home Exclusive Accommodation also has a newly added catio and takes in stunning valley and windmill views while also frequented by our alpacas, sheep, chickens and roaming peacocks.

We consider outdoor play critical to guest happiness, so ensure all guests (no matter which accommodation style chosen) are able to have time in the sun (or night air to cater to natural nocturnal instinct!) and a chance to stretch their legs and play, after all it’s their holiday too!

Visiting

I would like to tour the hotel, can I do this?

We understand that choosing somewhere for your cat to stay is an important decision, and naturally, you want to feel confident about the environment and care they’ll receive.

However, as a specialist feline boarding facility, we don’t offer in-person tours, and there are some very important reasons behind this decision.
