Luxury Cat Hotel – Ultimate Feline Pampering

Longcroft Luxury Cat Hotel - feline pampering
Longcroft Luxury Cat Hotel

We all love our pets but how far would you go to pamper your pet?

Plans are underway for a new cat hotel in Haywards Heath, England. This English feline hotel is named the Longcroft Luxury Cat Hotel would feature seven custom-built cat suites …. already featured in two other locations in Welwyn Garden City and St Albans.

The company launched in 2010 when founder and owner Abi Purser could not find a suitable place to keep her cat – Norman while on a cruise. The Longcroft luxury cat hotel was his creation.

Luxury suites would feature wrought iron designer beds, plush pillows and a wholesome gourmet “A La Cat” menu consisting of fresh cod steak, steamed salmon and king prawns, among other yummy selections. Meals for your pampered cat will be served on bone china. Relaxing mood music and personal grooming sessions are also offered.

The existing Longcroft hotels pamper kitties with scratching posts, personal gardens and kitty climbing equipment in each room. Pet owners can indulge in personal grooming sessions, splurge for a photo shoot package, or sign up to receive electronic postcards from their cat.

Suites range in price from $25 for a single cat staying in a large suite to $96 for five felines sharing a super-sized suite. Only cats from the same family are allowed to stay in the same room. The hotel works on an appointment only basis so there are not a lot of cars coming and going at all hours.

If plans are approved, the hotel could potentially open by early 2013. Abi added that she was ‘excited’ about the prospect of coming to the town, and thinks it is ‘fabulous’. Local people would be invited to an open day to view the facility and see what is offered.
