"My kitty Shaun has had a holiday at Fabcats twice now and has thoroughly enjoyed both stays. He settles in straight away, makes lots of friends and always comes home a very happy kitty! The environment is so peaceful with lots of toys and adventure spots for the cats! Feels great going away knowing my baby is well cared for and happy, thank you Hayley! We will be back 😻 😻"

"Our wee girl Lumi went for a holiday with Fabcats and I can’t recommend them enough. The service from our first point of contact with Hayley to pick up time has been amazing. Lumi throughly enjoyed her stay there playing in the tunnels, tents and the climbing towers and making friends with her room mates. The set up is awesome and well thought out in a safe and secure environment with plenty of fresh air in a beautiful rural setting. Hayley sent regular updates and photos and our girl looked very relaxed and happy. Thank you again and we will definitely be in contact when we go away again."

"Hayley is a very knowledgable and loving cat person who runs a beautiful cattery with lots of clean toys and many places for the cats to roam and nap. My fur boy made new furry friends and was very happy and healthy in his holiday ‘home’."

"Our cat Gysbertha had a fabulous holiday at Fabcats, it was our first experience putting her in a cattery and it was outstanding. Great facilities, definitely not your standard cattery set up, so many toys and secret hiding spots for the cats! We loved the updates from Hayley throughout Gysbertha sta. Highly recommend sending your cat here if your want a friendly, fun and loving experience for your cat. Thanks Hayley!!"

"Hayley has done an amazing job looking after my 11 year old cat Poppy. It was Poppy's first time at a Cattery, and Hayley new exactly what to do. Poppy enjoyed her stay with Hayley at FABCATS Country Club. Hayley provided daily updates and exceeded my expectations. I will be taking Poppy back to FABCATS when I am next on holiday 😀🐱"

"Couldn't recommend Fabcats and the wonderful Hayley enough. I was anxious about leaving my cat in a cattery however Hayley runs a very personable set up with wonderful spaces for the cats. I chose to put mine in a private room as she is not very socialized with other cats, with the option for her to explore if she wanted. Daily updates and videos from Hayley were perfect and I could see Poppy was extremely happy and comfortable. Will definitely be using Fabcats again!"

"Hayley did a wonderful job taking care of my hairy baby while we were away and she sent me heaps of updates too. Biscuit was super relaxed when we dropped her off and I think she'd be happy to take a holiday here anytime 😊"

"Our 2 exotics & 1 persian recently had a 7 day stay with Hayley at her lovely cattery. I visited the cattery beforehand & loved the bright, happy spaces she had created and felt they would fit right in. Hayley sent me pictures & videos while we were away & it was obvious they weren’t stressed at all! We could tell when we went to collect them that they had had a lovely time & were very well settled. I would highly recommend Hayley and Fabcats to any cat mother!"

"I cannot recommend this place enough! This was our first time leaving our cat in a cattery, and my partner and I were a bit worried about it. Once I met Hayley and saw her cattery, all my worries vanished. She is clearly a cat lover, and you could see she puts her heart and soul into the cats and cattery. All of the cats looked happy and healthy, and the cattery itself is a five-star cat hotel with plenty of hidey houses, scratching posts, cat towers, and cushions- it's basically Chipmunks crossed with the Hilton for cats! On top of this, the whole cattery is bright, airy, and clean. Throughout our holiday, Hayley kept in touch with updates and videos of our cat (which we LOVED!) so that we were constantly reassured that she was in good hands, well-looked after, and well-loved.
We can't thank Hayley enough for the 10/10 care she took of our cat, and we will definitely be using the FabCats Country Club again!"

"Hayley cared for our cats wonderfully during their week-long stay, which was during an unsettling time for them as we were moving house. I had the utmost confidence in Hayley who managed their needs as elderly cats, one with medication, so well. She is very pleasant and efficient and kept us updated on how they were doing. The place is beautifully clean and stimulating for yhe cats. Highly recommend. We will definitely use Fabcats again."

"Hayley looked after my fur babies for 3 weeks, Daisy is a rescue cat and is very wary of strangers, but she came out of her shell with Hayley’s care and patience and my other cat Teddy is on medication and Hayley administered it. I would highly recommend Fabcats so much so I’ve booked them in for May and Christmas😻"

"I would highly recommend Fabcats. It is by far the best cat "hotel" we have ever used. So much there for the cats comfort. Space, toys, beds. Bright and clean. Hayley sent us updates with photos and videoo as well. Both of our cats are rescues and Maple can be a bit timid but Hayley managed to bring her out of her shell. I consider Warkworth very fortunate to have such a wonderful place for fur babies."

"I couldn't be happier with Fabcats. Hayley is a genuine cat person and has created a lovely environment that is warm, cozy, bright and clean all in a beautiful, peaceful rural setting yet only a very short drive from Warkworth.
Through the wide range of equipment, toys and places to just relax this cattery caters to all the different types of cats and their interests. Our cat certainly settles in quickly.
Compared to other catteries we've tried, Fabcats is transparent and open so you're not left wondering... What's really going on here? It has a spacious boutique feel that gives you the sense that your cat will not be overwhelmed by other cats or forgotten. My cat is old and needs medication. It's important to me that he feels safe and his health and wellbeing are priorities. I am confident that Fabcats embraces these values and I'm also comfortable in recommending to all."

"APRIL/MAY 2024
My little rescue cat George had a
fab holiday with lovely Hayley at
FABCATS. The cattery is so nice
with lots of play tunnels, toys &
beds In fact everything to keep
our fur babies happy and safe.
The rural setting is very peaceful.
Hayley sent me regular updates
with photos and videos of
George. He settled in very well for
his first time in a cattery. I highly
recommend FABCATS and Hayley
and I am sure George will love his
next stay there in June.

"Fussy cat owner here….and a very happy one at that! Not sure I want to leave this review, as I don’t want the secret of Fab Cats to get out, but I would be doing Hayley a disservice if I didn’t.
We were worried about leaving our spoilt Tonkinese as we normally get a house sitter. Hayley made me feel at ease from the initial email contact, so we went ahead and booked for a week. The daily photo and video updates were fantastic, and meant we could relax knowing our cat was doing well. When we got home, she purred straight away……normally she is angry at us for at least three days before she forgives us, so that says a lot!"

Their attentiveness and professionalism have given us immense peace of mind, allowing us to focus on our holiday without worries. The updates and communication throughout their stay clearly demonstrate their expertise and genuine care for the wellbeing of our cats. FabCats Country Club's exceptional service ensures our cats remain happy and healthy. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking top-notch cattery services."

It's a beautiful clean place with loads of toys and open spaces for cats to play.

"A great place for your cat if you're going away. We just had our 2 seven-month old kittens stay for a week and I was most impressed. Hayley the owner clearly loves cats and took great care of them. She even sent us photos and videos every couple of days! Lots of space and plenty of things to keep cats stimulated. Highly recommend and will be using again."

"My boy Baz had a great time at FabCats Country Club. He was a total pain to begin with, we arrived hours after we said we would, due to him being “unavailable” for his drop off. But nothing was a problem. I was shown around and felt very comfortable leaving him there. The photos that were sent through, during his stay are a great point of difference from that of any other cattery where he has stayed. We’ll be back."

"My girl Olive, felt right at home at Fabcats straight away, so many places to perch, hide and explore in the communal space. Beautiful quiet country views, peaceful environment and Hayley cares so much about every single cat, you just know they are in good hands. Love the pics I was sent also. Olive will definitely be back! 🫶🐈⬛

"I highly recommend Fab Cats Country Club. Naturally I was very nervous leaving my cat with someone new for a couple of weeks over Xmas. Upon my arrival, Hayley greeted us as we pulled into the drive. I felt comfortable with Hayley upon meeting her for the first time. She’s a beautiful woman inside and out, with a kind, gentle and friendly nature.
The cattery is very secure, clean and spacious, light and bright, with lots of comforts and toys. It is very clear that a lot of love has gone into creating this boutique country club. All the cats look so relaxed and content there. It’s a quiet, peaceful environment, with awesome collective areas, and large individual rooms for those that prefer their own space.
Hayley instantly made friends with Aura (which isn’t usually an easy task). She exceeded my expectations, with impeccable contact, and went to the effort of asking me what Aura likes and dislikes, and sent me daily updates including lovely videos of Aura having her coat brushed. I was able to see and hear my fury friend purring away, enjoying the pampering sessions she was given on her stay.
Aura was very happy there, and has since been back for a second stay. I am so grateful for having a safe place for her to stay, and to know Aura and Hayley have developed a trusted friendship."

If I could give 10 stars for FabCats I would!
After moving to the area I was in need of a new cattery for my little girl and am so very pleased I found FabCats! Finding a safe and secure place that she could relax, play and be comfortable was of super importance to me. Hayley provides this and so much more!
You can really tell Hayley loves cats as the rooms and play arears she provide are top notch with so many toys, beds, places to just hang out. She also takes the time to send you cute photos and videos of your fur baby to put your mind at rest while you’re away!
If you’re looking for a great cattery for your loved one, FabCats is the place to go!
