Pledger’s vision for the Mau House Cat Hotel was born out of her own struggle eight years ago to find a pet sitting facility that would treat her cats as kindly as they did her dogs.
RICHMOND — At Mau House Cat Hotel, a 12-room operation in Richmond, guests are welcome to climb as high as possible, lounge in the windowsill or hide away to do absolutely nothing at all.
The hotel is cage free, featuring private, homey rooms ranging from 20 square feet to 120 square feet. Each unit has at least one window and furniture to climb, and each cat is individually let out to roam an hour a day. Additional amenities are also available, like cat grass, scratchers, brushing, catnip and flea treatment.
I started researching cat boarding in general and that seemed to be the case at most places — there were a few places in the Bay Area that were cat only. I started looking worldwide as well to see how other cultures treat cat boarding and I saw some really cool stuff and thought we need something like that here.We opened Nov. 1, 2019, and had an amazing holiday season because we were the only place that had any availability. Then everything shut down.
But at the same time, what really helped us was that veterinary offices that used to board stopped boarding altogether once the pandemic started. A lot of them didn’t start up again and a lot of boarding facilities, especially cat only boarding facilities closed. I’m not sure why but some never opened up again sadly, but it kept us going during those times.It’s not super surprising. One of my childhood best friends came to visit recently and said this is so you.
