TRAINED TO ADMINISTER MEDICATION
JANUARY 1, 2023
It is hugely important to me to ensure that I can provide that little bit extra to give comfort to my clients while looking after your cats while you are away.
I wanted to add that little bit extra to my role and with the wonderful support and help from Greensands Vets in Woburn Sands . I am trained to administer medication.
You never know while you are away whether your cat may suddenly require medication . It is a relief to know that if your cat suddenly requires medication or is currently on medication that I can continue administering the medication while you cat is away.
I only ask that all my clients provide enough medication to see their cat through the time you are away and a little bit extra just in case you get delayed on your travels.
Your cat will be in good hands and we will lliaise with you and provide you with updates if necessary.

I AM ALSO TRAINED BY GOVERNMENT APPROVED AGENCY AS A MOBILE MICROCHIP PET IMPLANTER
JANUARY 1, 2023
As you may already be aware the Government Laws are changing . As from the 10th June 2024 and it will now be compulsory for all pets to be microchipped unless you have a microchip exemption certificate from your local vet. If it is found that your pet is not microchipped after the 10th of June and your pet is over 20 weeks old. You could receive a fine of £500 per cat.
In addition to my cat feeding role I am also a Government Agency Qualified Mobile Pet Microchip Implanter for those pets that prefer to have their microchips inserted from home. My rates range from £10.00 to £15.00 per cat covering Milton Keynes and surrounding villages. Feel free to get in touch if you would like me to visit your cat. Always happy to help.
BOOKINGS
That army of cats keeps me very much on my toes. As you can imagine there are always peak times of the year where you all like to go away. Due to this it is a huge help to me that once you have dates that you let me know your dates as soon as possible as I would hate you to lose you booking slot. Once a client pre meeting has taken place and you are happy to use me again then all you need to do is whatsapp me future dates and I can pop them in the diary for you.
If you flights change it is no problem just let me know as soon as you know and I can update the booking accordingly.
If your holiday gets cancelled please can you let me know as soon as possible. This gives me an opportunity of opening up a booking slot for another family to take the booking as you can imagine the bookings fill up pretty quick over peak times.
There are also times when I have to close the books off. It is important to me during busy times of the year that the quality of my work does not flounder so I do have to close the books off at somepoint to ensure that the level of service is maintained.
Your help and support is hugely appreciated.
PRE MEETINGS
It is really important to me to ensure that you cat is taken care of. I like to meet my clients before they go away to go through all the necessary feed, medication, litter trays and other bits and bobs just so you feel completely comfortable before you go away.
I am now offering pre meetings in 3 different formats to cater for your current lifestyle these options are as follows.
OPTION 1: ONE TO ONE PRE MEETINGS.
There is no cost for this pre meeting. I will visit your home and sit with you to go through all your cat feeding requirements.
This meeting should not take any longer than half an hour.
OPTION 2 FACETIME
This option works well with those of you who are working from home who are used to scheduling in conference calls. We can go through all the necessary cat feeding requirements online. Again the pre meeting shouldn't take any longer than half an hour.
OPTION 3 EMERGENCY CAT FEEDING QUESTIONAIRE.
There are always times when you are suddenly having to rush away. It could be a last minute late booking on a holiday but you don't have time for a one to one pre meeting or an emergency business trip or hospital stay. It is times like this that the Emergency Cat Feeding questionaire can be emailed over to you. Please do get in touch if this option suits you.

MICROCHIP PET SCANNER HOLDER
As you are aware microchipping of cats i now compulsory. This means all cats must be microchipped and this can be done at your local vets or rescue centre.
Once your cat is microchipped it is vetal to ensure that if you move that your new address is updated on the microchip database.
There are still a number of pets out there that get lost and rescue centres are fighting a battle trying to locate the lost pet and reunite them with their owners.
Please help us help you.
If you find a stray pet I do have a Microchip pet scanner which I do loan out to residents in Woburn Sands, Aspley Guise and Aspley Heath.
You can also purchase these microchip pet scanners online. You can tie them to your dog leads too.
YOUR CAT HOLIDAY CHECK LIST
Here is a handy check list of things to do before you go away to ensure your cat is ready to receive me.
1. Ensure your cat has enough food to last the holiday plus extra in case you get delayed
2. Ensure your cat has enough medication to last through the duration of your holiday and some extra if needed in case you get delayed.
3. Allow you vet sufficient time to order medication in before you go away.
4. Ensure your microchip cat flaps have fresh new batteries inserted
5. Ensure your microchip pet feeders have fresh new batteries installed.
6. Ensure you Central Heating System is at a suitable temperature to ensure there is no risk of birst pipes due to cold weather.
9. Ensure there is plenty of cat litter if your cat uses the litter tray.
10. Ensure your cat has had it flea and worming treatment if it is due for a treatment. I can administer if you don't have time if medication is provided.
11. Ensure you cat's microchipped details are up to date and the address is correct.
12. Cancell you milkman
13. Ensure any rooms you do not want your cat in are closed. You can whatsapp me if you forget.
AWARDS AND LOYALTY SCHEME
I have felt very humble over the years to have received awards and it is thanks to all of you. It means an awful lot and to me. To me it is about doing the job I really love.
Customer loyalty means a lot to me but also I like to give something back. Word of mouth helps maintain my competitive rates so if clients recommend me to others who live in my cat feeding zone area and they book with me. The clients that recommend me will automatically receive one day free cat feed and those new clients will also receive one. It is my way to say a very big thank you for your support.
COMMUNITY PROJECTS AND SANTA PAWS
I love to get involved in the community events. This year was a busy one and my cat Hope followed me on my adventures. This years events involved organising the community scarecrow trail for the Woburn Sands Music Festival and earlier on this year with the help from Men In Sheds organised the community Coronation Crazy Golf Event. I must admit it was hard work but had lots of support from the community and it was great seeing everyone having fun and still managed to feed my army of cats. Due to work and family comittments I have had to step down from organising events and I thought it would be nice for someone else to take up the reigns and give catwoman a bit of a break from organising events but I willl be re launching community project "Santa Pws". I have received llots of interest since we announced. "Santa Psws: was a scheme launched by a local resident in Woburn Sands a number of years ago It was a scheme where residents can purchase and donate pet food , pet litter and drop these items off at locations around our community. A few days before Christmas all donated items will be transported to our local animal rescue centres in time for Xmas. I hope the local community will support me with the venture. Drop off points will be announcement at a later date and we are aiming to start receiving donations from 1st December.
DISPOSAL OF CAT LITTER FOR MILTON KEYNES RESIDENTS LIVING ON THE BUCKS BORDER
As you are aware Milton Keynes Council have introduced the new waste collection service.
There has been confusion raised in the past as to how cat owners dispose of cat litter.
Cat litter comes in all different forms from clay based, crystals, through to more organic makes such as wood chippings, popcorn and chicken feed.
Over the years confusion has arisen that Wood Chippings, popcorn and chicken feed are classed as organic and should go in the Green bin. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. ALL USED CAT LITTER WHATEVER THE TYPE is used cat litter is classed as general waste and should be double bagged and go in the black bin with the black lid under General Waste. I hope you find this useful
