"There are many intelligent species in the universe. They are all owned by cats." Hello! My name is Malik and I am living in the LIC/Astoria area. I am the proud father of two spoiled rotten tuxedo cats, Sterling and Cooper (any Mad Men fans?!). What I admire so deeply about cats is their fierce individuality and dedication to their pursuits. Though sometimes it can take a while to earn a cat's trust, there is nothing more rewarding than being on the receiving end of that first boop. Cats in my care will receive a personal assistant, an advocate, a playmate, and a friend. My motto is simple: it's a cat's world, they're just letting us rent it. I have a flexible work-from-home schedule that leaves me with plenty of gaps during the week (and weekend) to come and spend some quality time with your precious feline.

We would like to introduce you to some of our caregivers. KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats! I’ve always been an animal lover. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a little girl. I’ve had a kitty of my own, Rio, for over 5 years now. Hanging out with pets is always fun for me. I think that cats are especially unique because they know how to relax and just take it easy while also enjoy having fun and playing sometimes. In addition to cat sitting, I work as an academic sleep researcher. I study what factors are involved with sleeping well and how sleep is related to how our brains function. My research takes a lot of focus and attention to detail. I promise that I will pay attention to your cat’s needs with the same level of detail that I bring to my research! If you live in Harlem and need a cat sitter to visit your cat while you're away, Emily could be your perfect match. Contact us and send more details about your cat/s, we'll be glad to help you.

David has been a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, having raised both cats and dogs since his early childhood. He is, by profession, an IT Specialist, but he began, over the past few years, scaling back and working from home, which afforded him the opportunity to make cat-sitting a primary focus. When asked about his general philosophy, David says: Hi, my name is David! I have been a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, having raised both cats and dogs since early childhood. I am, by profession, an IT Specialist, but began, over the past few years, scaling back and working from home, which afforded me the opportunity to make cat-sitting a major focus. If asked about my general philosophy, I would say because many people view cats as being such self-sufficient creatures, it’s easy for them to take for granted the notion that they are just fine when left alone. Being so familiar with them, and having spent as much time as I have taking care of other people's cats over the years, I realize how untrue this is. It is important for the cats, as well as their humans to have someone there--not just to feed them & clean their litter boxes, but to provide a consistent level of companionship and stress-relieving stimulation, if even only for a brief amount of time every day. This is something that I feel is essential for a pet owner, and it is work that brings me great joy. I was born and raised in Brooklyn where I was surrounded by my family’s cats and dogs until I went away to Stony Brook University for my undergraduate education. It was then that I experienced the sorrow of losing a pet for the first time when my American Wirehair mix, Cookie passed away while I was away at school. I credit this experience, in part, with helping to shape the empathy with which I approach the care of another person’s cat(s)--particularly those with health concerns or of advanced age. Treating your cat(s) with the care and affection that I would my own beloved pet is my guiding principle and reflects the baseline standard of care that I provide. I am fully vaccinated/boosted against COVID-19, and will wear a mask during visits. I am available in the following New York City areas: Bed-Stuy (Bedford-Stuyvesant), Fort Greene, Clinton Hills, Park Slope, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, DUMBO, Boerum Hill, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, Kensington and Long Island City (LIC). If you need Cat Sitting service in Brooklyn, contact us with more details. We’ll be glad to help you! ___________________________________________

A clear communicator and a caring person. He really made an effort with our cats and spent time with them. He seems very trustworthy and I feel good about leaving my cats and home under his watch. Olivia - by survey ***** David gave us the gift of peace of mind while we were out of town. I had a lot of anxiety about leaving our cats because of a previous incident with a cat sitter, but David put my mind at total ease. He has such a calming demeanor that I know our cats picked up on and appreciated. I could tell he was very knowledgeable about cats and has a genuine love for them. That makes all the difference for me. Because one of our cats takes medicine daily, we had very specific instructions for their care, and David not only rose to the occasion, he went above and beyond. He asked great questions when he came for the first home visit and sent many daily photos with details on how our cats were doing while we were away. I cannot tell you how much I appreciated all of this. I will definitely be booking with David again. Thank you! We would like to introduce you to some of our caregivers. KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats! My name is Caroline, and I am a lifelong cat lover! I grew up with multiple cats, have been a frequent cat sitter my whole life, and have been told I’m a cat whisperer to even the shyest of kitties. I am a New York City transplant who moved here from California, and I miss my family’s cats dearly (one 18-year-old, wise old man, who needs some special care and all the love in the world, and one playful and snuggly 8-year-old, who is still a little kitten in my heart)! I can’t have cats in my current apartment, but my work is freelance and flexible, which lets me reliably visit your furry friends in their home environment, where they are most comfortable. I love helping other cat owners feel at ease when they are going away for vacation, knowing their furry loved ones will be in loving, caring, and capable hands. I know firsthand how stressful it is to leave your dear kitties when you are going out of town, and how comforting it is to have a sitter you can trust who is very responsible, attentive to detail, and communicative while they are looking after your cats. I would be honored to be that person for you! I look forward to caring for and bonding with your cats, and keeping you updated on how they are doing. Every cat is different, so I look forward to getting to know your cat’s individual personality, and taking purrfect care of them! Caroline will enjoy taking care of your beloved feline/s. Contact us and send more details about your cat/s and the service you need, we will get back to you as soon as possible.
A healthy diet is crucial for your cat to live an active and long life. However, your feeding efforts may go to waste if you ignore the safety and hygiene of feeding containers. Your pet’s health depends on the kind of container or bowl you use and how frequently you clean them. Feeding bowls come in a variety of materials, from plastic and ceramics to stainless steel. Which one of them is the best for use as a feeding bowl? This article gives an in-depth guide that will help you to choose the right material for your cat’s feeding bowl. Stainless Steel Bowls Advantages

Plastic Bowls Advantages

Conclusion for Cat Bowls When it comes to selecting a feeding bowl for your cat, choose the material type that is safe for chewing, is durable, and doesn’t host any kind of harmful chemicals. While plastic bowls are cheap and can’t break easily, they pose a risk of tiny bits being swallowed by your pet that can come off while chewing. Ceramic bowls are heavy to move and can work for pets that are playful with their food bowls. This makes stainless-steel bowls the safest option as they have a non- porous surface, making it difficult for the buildup of bacteria.

When I sat in a chair he’d jump in my lap. He constantly followed me around the house, slept in bed with me, and showed his discontent when I was going out. A very playful fellow he loved having his belly rubbed. He lived to be 14 years old and I miss him to this day. My friend has a new kitty, just 6 months old. She gets very excited when I visit, jumps around and plays with everything that moves, chews on my fingers…ah, so adorable. Laura provides cat sitting visits in the UWS or West Harlem.

I am a transplant from Texas that has been living in NYC for about 2.5 years now. I have owned cats almost all my whole life. I grew up with several cats and when I moved away from home I ended up taking one with me! Since then, I have almost always had a cat around and grew to absolutely love having a cat around. I have also become the go-to friend for any of my cat owning friends to help them take care of their cat when they are away. I love to learn each cat's unique personality and their different quirks. I recently lost my cat and am sincerely missing having a furry companion. I thought what better option is there than opening my home to other cats in need of a temporary home!

No matter how shy at first, or how hostile, any of my kitties have been I’ve yet to meet one that doesn’t end up snuggling on the couch with me. I have compiled a voluminous photo album of all my furry visitors and hope to keep adding pages to it for many years to come.

We would like to introduce you to some of our caregivers. KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats! Tabish is a world traveler who has lived abroad and now resides in a charming one bedroom townhouse on the upper west side of Manhattan. Growing up in Kenya, I was surrounded by wildlife. One of my earliest memories as a child of 4 or 5 years of age is watching a lion cub, the cutest thing I’d ever seen. I wanted to take it home, but my dad said I could have a kitten instead that was just as cute and from the same family. The rest, as they say is my cat history. I have worked in the humanitarian sector in Europe, Africa, and Asia, using my fluency in English, Swahili, Punjabi and Urdu. My other passion had always been for fashion. I studied towards a M.A at Central St Martins, London, which opened up opportunities to work with artisans in Kenya, Gambia and Nepal to create artisanal jewelry and textile collections. It also enhanced my inherent talent for fashion styling. My motto is, Wear Color Every Day. Tabish provides both services: in-home boarding and cat sitting visits. If you decide to board your cat, your kitty will have plenty of room to roam and play in this book filled and antique furnished home. Tabish works from home, adores cats, and has cared for many.

I feel totally comfortable with them. They are beautiful, intelligent and loving animals, I love and respect them deeply: I like the fact that they are close to their true nature. By nature I am a calm and sensitive person and adjust well to the cats' personalities which are so different from one another. A part-time teacher, I am at home a lot, translating or making craft, so I am able to spend time, play and have quality time with the cats, or let them be.

It was a great experience with them. And I would definitely recommend them if anyone needs a caretaker for their cats. We would like to introduce you to some of our caregivers. KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats! I've always been a big animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a beloved cat and many other pets including a dog and I actually thought I was a dog person for a long time, until I lived with two cats in 2020 and fell in love again! There's nothing more special than a bond with a cat, and I truly love meeting each one and discovering how unique their personalities are. I'm a gouache/watercolor artist and often paint animals and pet portraits; I even discovered a lot of old drawings from when I was a kid were of cats! I think it's so important to give your cat space at first and get to know them, I'm a gentle empath and will make sure your cat has the best stay in my home. I'll provide lots of cuddles and playtime - if that's what they like! I'm also a film nerd and love watching old 80's and 90's thrillers, riding my bike around Brooklyn, and recently took up knitting which goes well with my cat girl status. I'd love to get to know your kitty BFF! If you're located in Brooklyn, around Prospect Park, Sidra could be the best place for your cat/s to stay while you are away. Send us more details about your cat and the service you need, we'll be glad to help you.

KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats! When I was four, a stray cat (which my brother was secretly feeding) ran into my house and birthed three kittens. We weren’t a pet family at that time and my parents only had childhood experiences of raising dogs. We became pet/cat people overnight. Of that litter, one survived for 20 beautiful years. Chichi and I grew up together. Because of her, I’ve always been able to connect with cats — even ‘tough’ cats or strays. She wasn’t the only cat I raised; we came to own two other cats in her lifetime. The three cats couldn’t be more different, and yet, my relationship with each was special. Eventually, they all passed and I wasn’t sure I’d jump back into owning a cat because I was afraid I’d never find cats as great. I was so wrong. Four years ago I adopted a 6 y.o. tuxedo cat with arthritis. He came from a hoarder home and was extremely skittish with people. I have never had to work so hard to ‘normalize’ a cat, but Figgy and I have made strides. Due to his arthritis, Fig is on a strict diet and is medicated daily. I intimately understand the importance of adhering to diets/medication routines because his comfort depends on it. I’m very good at meeting cats where they are. Figaro has taught me that some cats really operate at their own pace and can’t always be bribed. I’m comfortable with keeping my distance from a cat who wants that and also giving a kitty all of the loving it demands of me. I work as a graphic designer in FiDi and live in Harlem. Happy to visit with any kitties along the 2/3 line :) If you live in on the west side of Manhattan or the Bronx along the 2/3 train line, Erika will be delighted to take care of your cat.

____________________________________________________ REVIEWS Frances - survey 10/4/2021 * * * * * Erika is amazing! She sent me photos/ videos everyday. She was communicative and I could tell the kitties were well loved while we were gone. It puts my mind at ease to know if we need to go out of town for any reason our kitties will be well taken care of if not by Erika by someone else from this amazing service! Thank you!! Amy - survey * * * * * Erika might have been the best cat sitter we've had yet. I mean I've been happy with all of them, but she really played with the cats lots and they looked so happy in the pictures she sent us. Josh - survey * * * * * Erika was fantastic! She was attentive, communicative and really seemed to like our weird cats. She asked great questions and went above and beyond to make sure the cats were okay.

KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats I have always been an animal lover and done a great deal of cat- dog- and horse-sitting during my life. I recently lost my own beloved kitty (winter 2015) and miss feline company. Thought it would be lovely to welcome your cat into my home and give him or her all my affection until one day when I feel ready to adopt another pal. I am used to care for cats of different temperaments and ages, and enjoy the process of gently exploring their individual needs and preferences. If this involves rearranging a few things in my home to accommodate a kitty’s choices, I am happy to do so. I live alone in a clean and quiet small studio apartment on the boarder between Chelsea and the Village. It has lots of light and places for a cat to lounge. I work as an equine photographer and do all the editing at home, so your cat would have plenty of company and play time. Hope to make their acquaintance soon. If you live in Chelsea, Pia would be the perfect choice to take care of your cat. She will devote all the time and love your kitty needs.

____________________________________________________ REVIEWS Nick - by survey 03/10/2022 * * * * * Pia took loving care of our kitty...we received daily fotos & videos that reassured us that our cat was relaxed, comfortable and being well looked after....which we are most grateful for. We will definitely work with KittyInNYC and Pia again! Drew - by survey 01/21/2022 * * * * * Pia was super friendly and gave thorough and fun updates every day. Most of all I could see how well Pia was taking care of my cat by how affectionate my cat was towards her. Lee - by survey 10/12/2021 * * * * * Pia is smart, kind and has great communication skills. She understood Sammy's personality profile and didn't try to force him to do anything he didn't want to do, but she did spend a good deal of time with him even though he didn't emerge from under the bed while she was here. Would definitely want to book with her again. Thanks for everything! Amanda - by survey * * * * * Pia followed all directions, not only meeting, but going beyond all expectations. She was very caring toward Theo, sent me detailed notes of their time together and always included photo and video. Sara - by survey * * * * * Pia was the most wonderful cat sitter!

Mike - survey * * * * * Pia is the best. She sends me pics and videos of my cats on the days she is visiting and she also helps to clean up if there are any messes. Rachel - survey * * * * * Pia is the best kitty sitter we could ask for. She is super reliable, and goes above and beyond in terms of caring for our cat ollie. She always sends detailed updates and photos when she sits. The apartment and litter box will always be left in great condition as well! Mary - survey * * * * * Pia is SO sweet and always goes above and beyond the call of duty. She loves and values my cat. And it is SO convenient to drop off my cat to her. And she is happy to go buy more food, if needed. Elena and Peej - survey * * * * * Pia was very responsive will all communications prior to boarding, and sent thorough updates during the boarding period. From the pictures she send, you could clearly see that Pompi was well cared for, relaxed, and happy. Pia also went above and beyond her duties when Peej had trouble putting Pompi into her carrier before dropping her off. Mary Robin - survey * * * * * Pia is excellent on all fronts. She is loving AND she is willing to pick up the litter and food at the Pet Central near her (I suspect because her building is unable to receive deliveries.) Also, she keeps bowls, a brush and toys (sometimes I am in a hurry and forget to pack everything I should) - she is just a kind and thoughtful person and has a caring spirit - I suspect this is true in all her endeavors. Sebastien - survey * * * * * Pia was the best with our little Leon! She was really caring with him and gave him all her love! He came back home really happy and in great shape. We also loved the daily emails with multiple pictures that she sent us! Meghan - survey * * * * * She was incredibly thorough and caring.

Sharon - survey * * * * * Pia was very communicative and made sure all aspects of the cats' care were addressed- food, water, environment, grooming and play. Mary - survey * * * * * Pia is simply the best: genuinely caring and attentive to detail. I think she takes better care of our cat than we do (more attention, for sure). When I picked up cat, she even walked me downstairs and to the corner to help me find a cab. My load was heavy. P stands for perfection in this case. Amanda - survey * * * * * Pia made me feel very at ease leaving my cat. She sent lovely pictures and very thorough updates daily. It seemed like my cat didn't even notice I was gone because she was so happy! Louise - survey * * * * * Our caregiver provided wonderful detailed updates including. photos and videos, and our cat loved her! She is usually so shy, but she really loved Pia! Maybe more than us! Emily - survey * * * * * We really enjoyed having Pia watch our cat. Our cat does not like strangers and we appreciate Pia being able to handle a somewhat "difficult" pet. Alana - survey * * * * * Pia was fantastic. I could tell how invested she was with this job and how much she loves animals. Instantly she put myself and my kitty to ease.

There are several domestic cat breeds around the globe that make wonderful pets. If you are a cat lover or have been looking around for a suitable house cat, you may have considered the majestic blue-grey felines. The British Shorthair, Russian Blue, Korat, and Chartreux are renowned varieties that are often mixed up due to akin features, primarily their coat color. It can be hard to tell the difference, unless you have done your research beforehand. Each of these exotic cats are a superb choice to bring home, but they all have distinct personalities (and physical characteristics if you look closely). If you can’t decide between the four, some explanation will surely grant you clarity: British Shorthair The British Shorthair, native to Great Britain, dates back to the first century AD, winning it the title of an ancient feline species. They were originally developed to keep rodents out of the house and were also kept by Romans at sea to eradicate ship vermin. Believe it or not, the British Shorthair comes in a range of colors and patterns, but the solid blue-grey variety is simply the most popular. This cat keeps growing up to three years of age and can get quite big in size. Therefore, it is among those breeds that take ample time to mature; also, it is prone to obesity, so you may have to be careful about feeding habits. Personality wise, these cats are very gentle and laidback. They are perfect for homes having kids and other furry animals, including dogs. They are quite independent, so they won’t get frightened or agitated if left alone in the house. This cat loves to play and bond, though it is not at all clingy. The British Shorthair has a fluffy and matt silvery coat, cobby/stubby body and big round eyes that are gold or copper colored. Russian Blue The Russian blue is a naturally occurring breed of Russia and Scandinavia, which emerged after the World War 2. They have long slender bodies, luminous green/yellowish-green eyes, and a thick coat comprising of fine, barbed, and shiny blue-grey hair. Another prominent feature are their large ears that are set wide apart. The Russian blue is a social and agile cat, which likes to explore out of curiosity. They have the tendency to get emotionally attached to one person in particular. They do not mind some alone time, but will demand affection when you return home. This breed is very intelligent, observant, and vocal, though it struggles with adapting to any kind of change. Korat The Korat materialized in Thailand along the 19 th century and is known as a variant of the Burmese; it also referred to as a ‘blue Siamese cat’. The Korat is a medium-sized muscular cat possessing a heart shaped head and large amber green eyes. Fun fact: a Korat’s eyes are blue at birth and develop a yellow lining as they grow, eventually turning amber green at maturity. The coat color of this cat is usually a deeper shade of grey, in comparison to its familiars; also, the roots of the hairs are usually lighter than the tips. Korats are quiet and sweet cats, which are very devoted to their human parent; however, they can be unfriendly or aggressive towards other cat breeds in the house. Chartreux
The Chartreux is a rare French breed, which was first identified in the 15 th century. It is a burly cat, having a rounded face, ears, and body. The cat’s coat is dense and woolly in texture; the hair feels thick and silky. The eyes of a Chartreux are slanted or almond shaped, having a deep yellow to orange coloration. It is generally affectionate, self-contained, and silent, though it mingles well with everyone in the house. It may occasionally follow you around like a dog, which is a nice perk; not to mention, you earn a loyal companion without the risk of dog bite injuries.
