What a delightful cattery – my 2 elderly ladies are not used to being away from home but Kirsty made their stay enjoyable and made sure that I was kept up to date with their progress over my holiday. This took away the stress of leaving them behind for 2 weeks.
I cannot recommend this cattery highly enough – clean, bright and Kirsty is so attentive to both the cats and their slightly mad owners.

We have used Kirsty now 3 times in the past 12 months and we are so pleased with the way she looks after our 2 cats I think they actually like going there, lovely place.

Beautiful and spotlessly clean. These cats are loved as if they were the owner's own cats. My cat who is a hissing, spitting nightmare was looked as if she was in her own home. I would thoroughly recommend this cattery.

My furbaby George was with Kirsty for a week in February. A nervous George (with strangers) was very happy and enjoyed his stay. He's asked to stay again 🐈⬛

My furbabies have stayed twice with Kirsty and I have no hesitation in boarding them again. Kirsty is a lovely lady who really cares about your kitties, getting to know them and their foibles. They came home well fed and happy. When we picked them up Kirsty gave us an update on how they had been.
Fairways is a small well run cattery with a very personal touch.

As first time pet owners we were nervous in putting our kittens in a cattery. There was no need to worry at all as both were so content and happy during their 12 day stay at Fairways.
We received regular updates and a lovely video to show that they had settled, which really put our minds at ease allowing us to fully enjoy our holiday. When we picked them up, we could tell both boys were cared for so well. Thank you again Kirsty for looking after our cheeky ginger kittens! They look forward to their next stay 😄

I would defo recommend fairways Cattery as my kitten enjoyed a lovely 12 night stay there where he was fed, watered and well looked after. Kirsty even sent videos when I asked her to so I enjoyed my holiday even more knowing he was being well looked after. The price is very reasonable and includes food too. Thanks again for looking after Domino so well Kirsty.

Kirsty is absolutely brilliant and so attentive with our fur babies. Our cats are naturally quite anxious and within a few hours she made them feel completely at home. They were with her for 2 weeks and loved it. I highly recommend Kirsty to look after your kitties xx thank you Kirsty 🌷

It was the first time my cat had been left in a cattery and I was worried! I had no need to worry, she was fine. Kirsty was terrific with her, she's a very nervous cat and obviously, put her at ease. I have no qualms about leaving her next time x

Kirsty was brilliant with our cat, she ensured he was looked after whilst we moved house.
She was friendly, kept me updated on how he was after a couple of days and provided excellent service. I would not hesitate in our cat staying here again.

Our two large soppy cats were looked after by Kirsty at Fairways while we moved house from Hampshire to Ramsgate. One of the best decisions we have made, which smoothed the move hugely. Kirsty welcomed them, settled them in and after a fortnight I think they would have happily stayed. She sent us a lovely video of Stan and Bert, looking very relaxed in their holiday home which cheered us up no end, and kept in touch regularly about how they were doing. Kirsty was so helpful about changing arrangements, as the date of the move kept shifting, due to Covid. The Covid procedures were brilliant too and we had absolutely no anxieties. The accommodation was perfect - warm and comfortable, even hot water bottles at night as the weather was particularly cold. They came back to the new home looking sleek and relaxed.
Cannot recommend Fairways highly enough, and will be using again whenever we need somewhere lovely for the boys to stay.

I am pleased to recommend Fairways Cattery at Cliffsend because the level of care Kirsty provided was very good when I needed to find accommodation for my two young cats while I was moving house.
Kirsty went the extra mile in making sure they were comfortable and even went as far as sending occasional photos to put my mind at ease too.
If you need peace of mind while you're working or on holiday and not sure where to board your kitties, Fairways is the right place to choose.

Fairways is a wonderful warm home from home for our cat. This is Bebe's third visit in 6 months due to building work. Kirsty really cares about cats and spent time settling and stroking Bebe, who is a rescue cat and very wary of change and strangers. By her second visit she trusted Kirsty so much she let her rub her tummy (I'm only ever allowed to stroke ears and chest and that's after 5 years!). She settles back home really quickly which I think is a huge testament to the quality of care she receives at Fairways. Would certainly recommend to any loving owner.

The finest cattery Thanet has to offer.
This is one of the finest catteries we have ever visited. Kirsty is one of the nicest and most genuine cat lovers we have met. The cattery is small and contained in her back garden, this small number of spaces allows Kirsty to give each cat the care and attention they need. The property is meticulously clean and well looked after, alongside the most important point that every cat there was happy, well groomed and exceptionally well maintained. We will be using Fairways every year we go away, if we could give more than 5 stars we would. Absolutely outstanding service.

Lovely, well organised and welcoming cattery - my cats obviously loved it!
I have two cats both of which are rescue cats. The female cat is very nervous and timid, and the male cat is long haired.
Due to Covid 19 and the 2 metre social distancing, I was unable to visit beforehand but I felt confident that my two cats would be in excellent hands. Everything was done efficiently online with Kirsty from the initial booking, completion of the forms through to the payment, and arranging drop off and pick up times. All the social distancing and hygiene requirements are met fully.
You and your feline friends are made to feel so welcome, and it is so lovely to have a more personal touch. Nothing was too much trouble - you could phone to check your cats were ok whilst away.
When picking up my two cats, they were quite chilled - even the female nervous cat which was really lovely to see! They obviously had been well looked after and cared for.
I highly recommend Kirsty at Fairways Boarding Cattery and would definitely be taking my two cats there again.

5star caring, secure holiday home for Bobby. Superb well laid out multi level cat accommodation, choice of food. Very professional yet informal attention to my cats needs. I cannot imagine a better cattery ..We have booked Bobby in through 2020. Highest recommendation for your cat whether old young or nervous

I booked my two cats in for the first time at Fairways Cattery this year after having two separate recommendations and it exceeded my expectations! The enclosures were bright, clean and spacious and Kirsty was so welcoming I was completely confident that they would be well looked after. The other cats all looked happy and comfortable in their own spaces. When we returned after our two week break the cats were in a beautiful condition, clean well groomed and bright eyed! I would definitely recommend Fairways Cattery but please avoid my holiday dates!

We were very reluctant to leave our 5 months old kitten with anyone but having seen how clean and warm Fairways was we felt more assured. After 16 days away we returned only to find our little kitten didn't want to leave. Sounds like little Mia had a much better holiday than we did in Malaysia. Need I say more.

We had not used a cattery before for Larrie our Siamese cat. She is very affectionate and loves human contact so we were apprehensive as to whether she would settle. When we visited Fairways we were struck by how much attention to detail had gone into planning the enclosures. They were all bright and clean with a homely look and a view to the garden. Kirsty asked questions about Larrie and her eating habits etc so we felt very reassured about the care she would receive. When she came home after our holiday she showed no signs of stress and her coat was soft and shiny. She had obviously been well cared for and spoilt. I would highly recommend Fairways and Kirsty, so much so that we have booked for next September already as we feel our special little lady was “happy as Larrie” in this lovely cattery.

We felt that Mollie our 16year old cat would benefit from a smaller holiday retreat. She had lost her partner in crime last September and was missing him and our previous cattery was well run but no TLC. I found Kirsty's website and immediately decided it sounded the place to be. After meeting with Kirsty and seeing her homely cabins I felt this was the place for Mollie. She was interested to know about Mollie and her ways, she has an age related health issue which was no problem and she is a fairly shy cat. Kirsty has a great understanding of cats and definitely a special rapport with them which for owners is a blessing. Mollie spent 5 weeks with her and I know was cherished during that time. We came back to stress free puss that settled back home as if she had not been away. I have no hesitation in recommending this establishment to anyone who wants their animal to be extremely well looked after.
