All cats must arrive in a carrier. No exceptions.
Be prepared to spend 10 minutes checking in your cat(s). You will have to fill out the New Client Registration Form, review and sign the Contract, as well as present your cat’s current proof-of-vaccinations. We will also discuss your cat’s feeding schedule, personality and any other current issues.
To shorten your time, you can fill out the New Client Registration form, as well as submit your cat’s vaccination records online. Also, you can have your vet fax your cat’s current vaccination records to Camp Kitty at (404) 937-6172 if you do not have them. Submitting a New Client Registration form does not guarantee a space for your cat. You must call or email to make a reservation.
Camp Kitty provides the litter, litter box and bowls. You should bring the following for your cat:
Check out is 1:00 pm. Cats who check out after that time will be charged for that day. There is no set check-in time. Cats who arrive at 8:00 am or 5:59 pm will be charged for that day.
There is a 10% discount for every 30 days a cat stays, with a maximum discount of 30%. Cannot be combined with free days from the Frequent Camper program.
The Camp Kitty Frequent Camper Program allows us to reward those who camp with us frequently. For every 12 days a cat stays at Camp Kitty, their 13th day will be free. You don’t have to do anything; we will apply the Frequent Camper discount from the total bill on the stay for which it applies.
Please note: Free days cannot be accrued. No exceptions.
No. Camp Kitty is strictly for cats. Check out these great dog boarding facilities.
Of course! We welcome all cats that need medication, though we do not give injections.
Bring your cat’s food and any bedding that will make him feel more comfortable. We provide the litter, litter box and bowls. You are also welcome to bring scratching pads/posts and toys (little toys don’t always make it out of camp). If you forget to bring food, Camp Kitty has a retail area where we sell both dry and wet foods.
We use Dr Elsey’s Precious Cat clumping clay litter. If you prefer an all natural, corn- or wheat-based litter, you are welcome to bring your own. We also sell brands, such as World’s Best, Swheat Scoop and Feline Pine, if you would rather purchase your own.
No, we do not. There are highly-skilled groomers in the Decatur area that we recommend.
Certainly! Cats from the same household who get along are allowed to share a cabin. There are times when some cats have to be separated due to stress-induced displaced aggression.
The most important thing to keep in mind is that cats are not like dogs. When they are introduced to a new environment, they are usually quite timid and scared and even stressed. If your cat is outgoing and playful at home, that doesn’t necessarily mean that he will be that way at camp. With every cat that boards here, we assess their personality and behavior before we let them out of their cabins.
You must bring your cat in a carrier. We are located on a busy road, and that presents all sorts of dangerous possibilities. Also, there are several cats who live at Camp Kitty and like to greet our customers and your cat may not be thrilled about that. Carriers are also necessary should there be an emergency and we need to go to the vet or even evacuate the premises.
Should your cat become ill while in our care, we will notify you first and then contact your vet. In case of an emergency and your vet cannot see your cat, she will be taken to either Village Vets in downtown Decatur or St Francis Veterinary Hospital just around the corner from Camp Kitty.
In our near decade in operation we have assisted many world travelling felines. We have picked up cats from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson airport who have arrived from places such as Russia and India. We have also worked with moving companies and families who have transported their cats to Los Angeles, Indonesia and the Phillipines. Fortunately, our friends at North DeKalb Veterinary Clinic are USDA Accredited veterinarians and the front desk staff is familiar with travel regulations in countries around the world. Contact us and we will assist you in whatever your travel needs may be.
There have been times when we have been able to meet people after hours, but they are usually under very special circumstances. As much as the cat ladies here love our feline campers, we actually do have lives outside of Camp Kitty. We have families to get home to, kids to pick up from daycare, our own pets to care for, other jobs to show up for and activities to attend. Please be mindful of our business hours and plan accordingly.
Yes, and we have a PetAirapy UV sanitation system installed on our HVAC system. The PetAirapy system continually and quietly circulates the air in our facility. Viruses, bacteria, mold, and other germs are killed or neutralized before they have a chance to cause or spread illness or infection. In fact, strict EPA-approved independent laboratory testing shows that PetAirapy systems can eliminate over 99.9% of illness-causing viruses and bacteria right at the source.
