Cats Cradle Cattery 4363 Kipling Street, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033

"We have used this facility for several years with 3 different cats. First of all it is run by people who really love cats. They know cat behavior and they let the cats wander and greet each other. It is a wonderful experience for any cat to enjoy. Will use again!"

"I took my cat here about a year ago. The owners seemed nice enough, but the facility itself was in disarray and smelled of cat urine. I was really disappointed when I picked up my cat and saw they free fed it the food they provide and not what I brought specifically for my cat. My cat was also constipated after I took it home, and eventually needed an ER visit that cost me $600 after we tried everything at home. After seeing similar stories on Next-door I wanted my experience to be known as well. If you have a cat with special needs it will not get individual attention. Let's just say at $10 a day you get what you pay for."

"We boarded our 5 month old kitten, Slim Charles, with Paula and Ken and it was a fantastic experience! Yes, they use more outdated measures to run their business, but it certainly does not take away from how much they love and care for every cat that comes through their doors. This cattery is clearly very special to them. This was our first time having to leave Slim Charles and I was very stressed. Paula was so sweet and kind and made me feel so much better about having to board him. When I called to make the reservation, she spoke to me for quite awhile about the cattery, answered all questions and ensured me our kitty would have a blast. I called for updates during Slim’s stay and Paula was happy to give them; telling me our kitty loved to follow Ken around the cattery and help with chores and that Ken has nicknamed him “Slim Jim.” When we picked our little guy up, he was definitely excited to see us, but was not at all distressed. After we got home, Slim slept for hours like he had been playing all weekend! Although we love the facility where we board our dog, this level of play and attention is not something we’d get there for Slim. We will definitely be using Cats Cradle Cattery EVERYTIME we need to board our kitty!"

"Although I didn't board my cat there this time, trip canceled. I did tour the facility and saw several cats out and about, being happy. The gentleman explained everything and went over pricing. The cost seemed more than reasonable. I will use them next time I have a trip."

"This was my first experience boarding my cats and was looking for somewhere that was cats only. When I called I got minimal information but looked them up online and they had good reviews so I decided to try them. $10 a day per cat is a pretty good deal but you get what you pay for. This place is dated, the kennels are multi-level but a little small but the owners seem to love cats and the place was pretty full when I dropped my cats off for a five night stay. I left them with toys, food, and everything they could need along with instructions on how much food to give them per day. I called for updates after a night or two and got minimal responses like they were fine and when I would ask specifics I didn’t get an answer. When I went to pick them up, I found that they didn’t feed them any of the food that I brought and they were feeding them whatever they had for the rest of the cats. I asked more questions about how their stay went and got no response. Even when I walked in, they thought I was picking up a different cat. There is no real system or formal check in/check out process. My two cats were severely stressed out after picking them up and it took them a few days to recover and keep down their normal food. I will not be using them again because of the lack of updates and not feeding them the correct food."
