ANYONE who owns a cat knows they treat our houses like hotels.
Now, however, a new level of sophisticated luxury has been designed to make sure our fab felines can live in the manner to which they’ve become accustomed when we’re away — the world’s first five-star hotel exclusively for cats.
Catzonia, in Malaysia, features temperature-controlled rooms and king-sized beds for all that stretching and turning over.
It also boasts a dreamy playground full of toys and gourmet grub that even the choosiest moggie will surely savour.
Sited at Damansara, close to the capital Kuala Lumpur, Catzonia was set up for cats whose wealthy owners go away on extended holidays or business trips.
There are an impressive 35 rooms to choose from, in four categories, and a staff of cat-lovers are on hand to play, groom and make everything just delightfully cat-tastic.
The top category, and hence the most expensive, is the Very Very Important Cat, which offers three king-sized beds, a separate mini-playground and loo, and space for up to 10 cats at a time.
With air-conditioning, showers, queen, double or single beds and even wi-fi internet, the other categories aren’t too much of a step down.
The owners’ philosophy is that cats must feel like they are the boss, and this means being pampered, spoiled rotten, and above all, never left to feel lonely when their owner is elsewhere.
Medicated grooming is another delight if you have the money, and all the feline guests are utterly secure, with CCTV surveillance 24 hours a day.
A smartphone app means that regardless of where in the world their owners are, they can keep an eye on their beloved cat.
The lowest prices work out about £3 a night, so thankfully they don’t charge standard human prices!
You’ll probably not be surprised to know this isn’t the first cat hotel, but it’s certainly the first five-star one.
