WHY LUXURY CAT CARE REALLY MATTERS …For today’s discerning pet owners, excellent pet care is no longer a ‘nice to have’ when planning time away. It’s essential. You can book the best flights, upgrade your seat, reserve your dream hotel suite and plan every detail of your own trip, but if you’re constantly worrying about your cat at home, the luxury quickly loses its shine.
This is exactly where Longcroft Luxury Cat Hotels come in. Across the UK, Longcroft’s boutique cat hotels are redefining what premium pet care looks like, giving owners the freedom to fully relax and enjoy their own holidays, safe in the knowledge that their feline family members are having a holiday of their own.
Each Longcroft hotel offers just six to eight beautifully designed suites, ensuring a calm, quiet, and highly supervised environment. Every suite features a thermostatically controlled bedroom and a private play area, allowing cats to climb, explore and relax in complete comfort.
Five-star feline care comes as standard across all Longcroft locations. Suites are spacious, climate-controlled and designed to feel like home, if not better. With room service, tailored play sessions, one-to-one attention and plenty of affection, every guest is treated as an individual, not a number.
The result? Cats that feel safe, settled and genuinely pampered. Owners who can finally switch off.
Longcroft was founded in 2010 by Abi Purser after she struggled to find suitable care for her own rescue cat, Norman. That lived experience still defines the brand today. Animal welfare sits at the heart of everything Longcroft does and personalised care isn’t an optional extra – it’s the point!
From tailored diets and grooming packages to breed-specific enrichment, medical care for conditions such as diabetes and support with behavioural needs, Longcroft’s experienced hotel owners understand that consistency and attention to detail are what keep cats happy and healthy when their owners are away.
Add to this chauffeur transfers with insured drivers, guidance for international travel and vaccinations, veterinary support on call, and regular photo updates, emails and even postcards. Uncertainty is replaced with structure, reassurance and confidence.
As pet ownership continues to rise and animals are increasingly viewed as family members, expectations around pet care have changed in the UK. For extended trips, complex routines, or cats with additional health needs, a cat sitter visiting the owner’s home or a standard cattery often isn’t enough.
There’s a potential disconnect – if you’re paying for a luxury travel experience, the last thing you want is a lingering sense of worry about your pet’s safety and wellbeing at home, as discussed by Luxury Travel Magazine.
Longcroft removes that worry entirely. With excellent staff-to-cat ratios, controlled environments, close monitoring and expert care, cats return home relaxed, healthy, and in some cases even eating and feeling healthier than before!
By providing purrfect kitty holidays, Longcroft enhances the greater holiday experience for owners. It’s not just about comfort and convenience for the cat – it’s about giving owners complete mental freedom while they’re away.
Because true luxury isn’t just where you go or where you stay. It’s knowing that everyone you love, including your four-legged family members, are being cared for just as thoughtfully as you are.
