Old Oak Cattery Limited

Fantastic cattery, collected my 12yr old cat after a 11 day stay and I could see how well he had been cared for, staff were professional and very caring, a nice touch with the gift bag/treats/pen etc. Would happily pay a bit more. Highly recommended.

Couldn’t recommend a better catery. Trudy and her team are always wonderful and kind. The catery is always spotless and they are so attentive to all the cats. Ronnie loves staying at the Old Oak and clearly gets looked after very well. Thank you for allowing us to relax when putting Ronnie in the catery as we trust you!

Just picked up my cat from Trudy after a week away. I was extremely nervous about putting her in a cattery, as at the age of 10 and an indoor cat has never stayed in one. I did not need to worry, Trudy the owner was brilliant and communication from beginning to end faultless. The cattery is well looked after, clear and spacious, You can see Trudy has a real passion for cats. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Old Oak Cattery and will definitely be using it again. Thank you Trudy for looking after Georgie, 5 star rating for me.

Professional, caring, kind, attention to detail including medical history. Millie was so well looked after by Trudi and would highly recommend this cattery to cat owners. Trudi provided regular updates, which was lovely as we were nervous as Millie is 15 in August had not been in a cattery for some time. Millie did not sulk when she came home, it was lovely to hear how friendly she had been. Thank you so much again Trudi.

We used old oak cattery when me and my partner both ended up in hospital with covid. They came and collected arnie from ipswich. Whilst in hospital they sent us texts, pictures and video of arnie. Which was fantastic to see him even when we were at a low point, it gave us a bit of joy to see he was being so well looked after so well and was enjoying cuddles and belly rubs. They bought arnie back to us after 3 weeks, he looked very well. Words can't express our gratitude for the help and care Old Oak Cattery gave us and Arnie. We will certainly use them again and would whole heartedly recommend them.

I have never come across another cattery owner like Trudy - she’s first and foremost an animal lover and this is reflected in every aspect of the care she provides, but she’s also extremely professional and her facilities are of the highest standard. Our cat, Ambrosio, is a nervous little boy, but, each time he’s holidayed with Trudy, he comes back a bit more confident. He loves her, which says it all. We’re so lucky to have found her.

Jasper has just spent his first holiday at Old Oak and was so well looked after by Trudy. Our previous cat who sadly passed away last year spent several happy holidays with Trudy and we knew Jasper would be loved and cared for. We even received a video whilst on holiday of Jasper being groomed and we didn’t know that he liked being brushed. Loved the goodie bag with photo keyrings etc. - a lovely extra. Old Oak is a beautiful cattery - spotlessly clean and so calm and quiet - and Trudy treats all the feline guests as if they were her own. Jasper is already booked for 2 more stays later in the year and we know he will enjoy his holidays as much as we enjoy ours. .

Thank you so much Trudy for the loving care Mabel received whilst I was on holiday. It's the first time I have used Old Oak Cattery and I can't praise them enough. From the video of Mabel "on her holiday! " that was sent to me to let me know she had settled right in, to the key ring and tote bag, the kind services provided by Trudy go above and beyond. Mabel came home and just settled right back in, like she'd never been away! I have already booked Mabel's next stay with Trudy and have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending her. Old Oak Cattery is definitely the best Cattery I have ever used and the superb care is exceptional. Thanks again Trudy and Mabel sends lots of purrs too xx.

Fantastic cattery! Our cat Tilly was cared for with lots of love. She enjoyed her stay and even though we got her from the blue cross staying there didn’t phase her as she was cared for so well. Definitely will be booking with them again for our next holiday. Loved the little touch of the key rings we got after her stay.

DON'T look anywhere else! Change holiday dates if need be… Trudy is incredible, loves each and every cat as though they were her own. The 'pens' are large, light and exceptionally clean. She asks you for every detail into your cat to ensure she can treat them exactly how they like to be treated. We received updates and photos which my children loved! It felt like we were leaving our cat with a friend rather than a business. I've never had to use a Cattery before but I've already booked Tigg in for next June when we're away again. Tigg loves company and ends up following the neighbours around when we're not home! With Trudy shes safe and loved… what more could you ask for!Moreexpand_more

Lovely cattery and very friendly owners. Spider enjoyed his 10 day holiday whilst we were enjoying ours elsewhere. The whole process from enquiries to booking and dropping off to collection was so easy. Spider was relaxed and well cared for throughout. He even came away with his own little souvenir key rings - a lovely little touch. Will definately use this cattery again.

We are so pleased to have discovered Old Oak Cattery! It was Jensons first time away and we were nervous to leave him in someone else's care. After making a visit and speaking to Trudy, we were confident that he would be just fine! Trudy was great at keeping in touch and letting us know that Jenson was happy and fine whilst we were away. She certainly put my nerves to rest and we wouldn't hesitate in using Old Oak Cattery again!

We are thrilled to have "discovered" Old Oak Cattery. On our first visit we knew instantly that we would feel confident leaving our boys in Trudy's care. She is knowledgeable, trustworthy, thoughtful and kind and clearly loves the cats she looks after. We shall certainly be using this cattery again and cannot recommend it highly enough.

First time since getting my cat from the Blue Cross that I decided to go on holiday. I felt a little guilty as he had been rehomed twice before I got him but I told Trudy his story so she was aware of his history in case he appeared anxious. I knew he would get the best care and lots of attention as a relative had already used and recommended this Cattery. Pleasant rural setting with clean spacious pens. Their reputation is growing and it would be wise to book well in advance. Something I must remember myself.

I used the old oak cattery for 9 days in August, it was a last minute holiday and we luckily got a cancellation. The owner Trudy was welcoming and asked lots of questions. The cattery is absolutely spotless and fresh smelling. I took our own food as my rag doll cat is a fussy eater. I'm in no doubt my cat had plenty of petting and had enjoyed a good brush. I would use and recommend this cattery again with no hesitation.

I would highly recommend this cattery, our elderly cat Molly hadn't been to a cattery for years and is on medication. Trudy was so helpful and reassuring and so obviously loves all the cats. The accommodation is new, spacious and very clean. Molly was so happy there and I even discovered she lioved being brushed.

Trudy is dedicated to her work, our cat Jeff stayed with her for a week whilst we were on holiday. The attention given to every little detail is outstanding and when we collected Jeff he looked like a new cat! He was well looked after and I would have no hesitation in recommending Old Oak Cattery. When we got home we found that Trudy had had 2 key rings made with pictures of Jeff during his stay on them. What a delightful thing to do! Thank you Trudy x.

Well what can we say about Trudy and the old oak cattery. EXCEPTIONAL! One word is not enough to say the care, love, attention, consideration and looking after that Lily received from Trudy, she is the most kind, caring, thoughtful and considerate lady we have ever met when it comes to looking after our little girl. Without any hesitation we would recommend Trudy and the old oak cattery to everyone. Trudy your passion and drive to make sure that every cat that comes to you is looked after is amazing. Keep up the excellent work and Lily will be back to see you soon.

Amber has just come home after her 2nd holiday with Trudy and Adrian and once again is completely relaxed and stress free. When we first visited Old Oak Cattery we were so impressed with the facilities and how passionate the owners are about their feline guests so we had no qualms about leaving Amber in their care. We highly recommend Old Oak to any cat lover and will definitely continue to use, in fact Amber is already booked in for a short break in May!

I cannot praise Trudy and Adrian enough for taking such great care of Jasmine during our house move. They went above and beyond in their helpfulness by even collecting and dropping our cat off for us. It was her first time at any cattery and she came back happy and relaxed to us. We also were given two key rings with beautiful photos of Jasmine, which was a lovely gesture and much appreciated….
