If you live in south Brooklyn and need to leave the city for a few days, AJ would be glad to help you with your cat/s. You will receive periodic updates during the service. Contact us and send more details about your cat/s, we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

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 have a great spacious one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Forest Hills. I live alone and my apartment is very safe for the cats. I have taken care of cats for over 15 years.  The cats usually take over my apartment and I just pay the rent.... They always feel very comfortable and they can sleep with me in my room, go on the couch, pretty much whatever they want to do. I keep treats for the cats when the behave and am very gentle with the cats. I love playing with them as well as I am at a Petland buying up the store for them.

They call me the "cat lady" so to speak... I have had a lap cat in the past and simply loved when she would curl up on my lap. My last two cats lived until 20 and 21  years of age... they were pretty much spoiled. Well that is pretty much my "cat life story". Rest assured you cat would be extremely safe with me.  I am experienced in giving medication to cats.

I'm now retired so your cats won't feel lonely.

If you live in Brooklyn or Queens, please ask for Beth and she can provide the perfect temporary home for your cat/s. You will receive periodic updates during the boarding. Contact us and send more details about the service you need. We'll be glad to help you.

Beth was amazing! We got update texts with pictures of our boys every few days. It was obvious she loved them and they loved her. Spider and Phillip seemed really comfortable. Beth was great at communicating to make sure our food and litter deliveries arrived in time, and helped us problem solve when there were delays. We couldn’t have asked for a better home for our cats while we were traveling.

Beth was exceptional with my Bella. She kept me posted on her emotional state and sent updated pictures. Bella went from off standish to best friend with Beth. This was my first time leaving my baby with anybody let alone a stranger stranger. I cried as I hugged her goodbye and Beth reassured me she would be fine.
She was absolutely right.

Beth did a wonderful job with my tuxedo cat Rami, she provided her own litter box and treats and was all around very lovely to meet and speak with! :) She sent me regular updates of how Rami was doing during his stay, i wasn't sure if Rami would feel comfortable being in another person's home at first, but he seemed very comfortable and right at home by the first night, he was out and about, using Beth's litter box and eating all his dry food. I will definitely contact Beth in the future if I have any trips since both my cat and I were so happy with her :) - Thank you so much again!

She worked wonderfully with Rosie. Rosie is very timid and this is the first time she ever stayed with a cat sitter. Beth gave her time to adjust to being in a new apartment with a new caregiver, and eventfully Rosie became comfortable with her. She took excellent care of her and kept me updated with texts and photos. I would highly recommend her and your service and definitely use her service again.

Too cute! Honestly these photos are unbelievable. I have never seen Mimi and Trixi so happy and content. We pointed out they are never so near one another as in your pics. And the one where Trixie is sleeping, we've never seen her sleeping with her ankles crossed. They are in cat heaven! Thank you so much for taking such super good care of them!

Cat sitting visits are recommended for short periods of time, if you are leaving the city for a few weeks or months our in-home boarding service is a better option. Kirsten can provide both, contact us and send more details about your cat/s.

I felt immediately comfortable leaving Zulu on Kirsten’s care. Her love for cats is obvious and Zulu warmed quickly up to her. She is very attentive to the cats needs, and kept me abreast at all times, letting me know how Zulu is doing.

Orientals have their foundation in the Siamese breed but represent a diverse group of cats. After the Oriental Shorthair was accepted for championship status in 1977, it has become one of CFA’s most popular breeds. While the breed's genetic roots are ultimately in Thailand, it was developed mainly in the US.

All color patterns and combinations are accepted. The Oriental is talkative and opinionated. They have a load meow and expect you to pay attention to them. Orientals are extremely close to their people. They will follow you around and supervise your every move. Orientals love company.

Be sure you have time to spend with this demanding and social cat. Orientals become highly attached to their people. The Oriental will greet you at the door and honestly believe everyone visiting is there to entertain and see them. Orientals do not like being left alone for long periods, and if you work during the day it can be smart to get two of them so they can keep each other company. If you need to leave for a short trip or holiday it is better to have them boarded. The Oriental is very intelligent and athletic, and loves to play. You should keep him toys and his body exercised with teaser toys that he can chase and a big cat tree he can climb. He is fully capable of opening doors and drawers or rifling through your purse in search of something interesting to play with.

The short coat of the Oriental Shorthair is easily cared for. Comb it every couple of weeks with a stainless steel comb or soft bristle brush to remove dead hair, then polish it with a soft cloth to make it shine. Keep the Oriental’s litter box spotlessly clean. Cats are very particular about bathroom hygiene. It’s a good idea to keep an Oriental as an indoor-only cat to protect him from diseases spread by other cats, attacks by dogs or coyotes, and the other dangers that face cats who go outdoors, such as being hit by a car. Orientals who go outdoors also run the risk of being stolen. They are quite different and draw attention to them easily.

Since Orientals do not like solitude in-home cat boarding is the best solution for them when you're away. Our caregivers will keep her company and spend quality with your cat. We love cats, your cat will be the only pet in the apartment. Book now your next cat boarding service, we'll be glad to help you. Kitty in NY has excellent options for you in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens.

The term "Tabby" applies to a color pattern, not a breed of cats. The tabby pattern can be found in almost any type of domestic cat. You can find the tabby pattern in different shapes and colors: dots, stripes, swirls or in brown, gray or orange tones, as well as a combination of these shapes/colors. Tabby cats come in four distinct coat patterns: Classic, Mackerel, Spotted, and Ticked.

You can also find the tabby patterns as part of a completely different coat color. "Tabby point" Siamese cats have tabby coloring on their extremities. You can see the tabby pattern on some black cats when they rest under the sun.

The "M" on their foreheads is  the most distinctive feature seen in common on all tabby cats. Wild "cats" like tigers and cheetahs share this "M".

The behavior traits among different tabby cat breeds can be as different and varied as those seen in human beings of different locations. Most tabby fans agree on the following:

• Tabbies are extremely playful by nature. Good hunters, they love to play with their human friends.
  
• They love to hang around their "family" and are usually more attached to a particular person in the house.
  
• Gentle by nature. They love being the center of attention.
  
• Owners say that tabbies are very laid-back. They seem to be more intelligent than other felines.
  
• Always ready to play. Tabby cats are affectionate and cheerful.

Most people who had the chance to share sometime with a tabby know that there is more than just the color of the cat that's special.

We would love to take care of your tabby while you're out of the city. Let us know your dates. At Kitty in NY we have caregivers with loads of cat toys. Your tabby will receive all the attention and playtime he deserves.

If you are leaving the city for a few weeks and need a temporary home for your cat/s, Gabbie might be available.

A few seconds of pondering silence in the Scrabble game was interrupted by a rustle of plastic at the cat door: Portland Bill was coming in again. Nobody paid any atten­tion. Michael and Gladys Herbert were ahead, Gladys doing a bit better than her husband. The Herberts played Scrabble often and were quite sharp at it. Colonel Edward Phelps-a neighbor and a good friend—was limping along, and his American niece Phyllis, aged nineteen, had been doing well but had lost interest in the last ten minutes. It would soon be teatime. The Colonel was sleepy and looked it.
'Quack,' said the Colonel thoughtfully, pushing a fore­finger against his Kipling-style mustache. 'Pity-I was thinking of earthquake.'
'If you've got quack, Uncle Eddie,' said Phyllis, 'how could you get quake out of it?'
The cat made another more sustained noise at his door, and now with black tail and brindle hindquarters in the house, he moved backwards and pulled something through the plastic oval. What he had dragged in looked whitish and about six inches long.
'Caught another bird,' said Michael, impatient for Eddie to make his move so he could make a brilliant move before somebody grabbed it.
'Looks like another goose foot,' said Gladys, glancing. 'Ugh.'
The Colonel at last moved, adding a P to SUM.

Michael moved, raising a gasp of admiration from Phyllis for his INI stuck onto GEM, the N of which gave him DAWN.
Portland Bill flipped his trophy into the air, and it fell on the carpet with a thud.
'Really dead pigeon that,' remarked the Colonel who was nearest the cat, but whose eyesight was not the best. 'Turnip,' he said for Phyllis's benefit. 'Swede. Or an oddly shaped carrot,' he added, peering, then chuckled. 'I've seen carrots take the most fantastic shapes. Saw one once ...'
'This is white,' said Phyllis, and got up to investigate, since Gladys had to play before her. Phyllis, in slacks and sweater, bent over with hands on her knees. 'Good Chr— Oh! Uncle Eddie!' She stood up and clapped her hand over her mouth as if she had said something dreadful.
Michael Herbert had half risen from his chair. 'What's the matter?'
'They're human fingersV Phyllis said. 'Look!'

Persians are well known for their looks and sweet personality. They have a long thick hair that requires some attention but you will enjoy their sweet and quiet company.

Persians originated in Mesopotamia (later known as Persia and Irak nowadays). The long hair was probably the result of a mutation. A Italian nobleman (Pietro della Valle) is credited for bringing the first Persian cat to Europe in 1626. Until the end of the 19th century long haired cats from Persia, Turkey or Afghanistan were known as "Asiatic" cats. In 1871 Persian type cats were exhibited at the Crystal Palace cat show, in Hyde Park, London. They had become popular at the time because Queen Victoria loved the breed. 

The present day appearance was achieved through selective breeding. Persians have a round head, short face, chubby cheeks. small ears, big eyes and short legs. Their hair is longer than other long haired breeds like Angora.

Persian cats were first imported in the United States in the late 19th century. They have become widely popular. Persians have appeared in many Hollywood films. One of the funniest ones is as the companion of Blofeld, the supervillain in the James Bond series. He is recognizable for always having a Persian cat with him.

Persians love routine and calm environments (even more than other cat breeds). They will adorn your chair, sofa or bed until you have time to admire her and provide the attention she deserves. This cat will not climb your curtains or countertops nor perch on top of the refrigerator. Their domain is the floor and low surfaces where she can groom and rest. They are however selective, they will reserve their attention to family members and those few friends or guests whom they trust.

Persians have many health incidences. There is a number of potential health problems you should be careful about:

• Constricted nostrils - this may cause difficulty breathing (or noisy)
  
• Dental malocclusions (the teeth won't mesh well together)
  
• Eye conditions - excessive eye discharge or entropion (an inward rolling of the eyelid edges)
  
• Higher sensitivity to heat
  
• Polycystic kidney disease
  
• Predisposition to fungal infections
  
• Seborrhea oleosa, a skin condition that causes itchiness and hairloss
  

The most important part of a Persian daily care is grooming. Their beautiful coat doesn't stay shinny and untangled on its own. You should brush and comb it every day, making it part of the time you spend with your cat. Bathing your cat once or twice a month is also a good idea.

If you need a temporary home for your cat/s while you are away, Heather might be available. You will receive periodic updates during the service. Contact us and send more details about your cat/s, we'll be glad to help you find the best boarding or sitting solution.

Barry lives on his own in a studio located at 666 West End Ave (92nd St) in Manhattan. He loves animals and enjoys taking care of cats.​

I'm a writer and editor who lives in a studio on the Upper West Side (90s/West End Ave.). I hail from Massachusetts but have lived in New York City for 30 years. I've boarded cats for several years now, and if you live within a radius of a few blocks and would rather have me visit your apartment to attend to your cat (I did that once), that's fine. I've taken care of several cats over the past few years (I wish I had a photo of Dexter!), and the cat you see accompanying my photo is one of my favorites, Eh-Gee (Korean name/Korean owners). Look at the face!

If you live close to the UWS in Manhattan Barry could provide a nice temporary home for your cat. He could also visit your cat/s in your apartment, cat sitting visits are recommended for short term services. Contact us and send more details about your cat and the service you need. We'll be glad to help you.

We connect you with a loving temporary home where you can leave your cat until you come back. You can now take a long break, pursue a career opportunity overseas for a few months or visit family and friends for long periods of time. Your cat will be in good hands and you will receive periodic updates during the boarding. It’s 24-hour care in the hands of cat lover for an affordable rate. Kitty in NY selects the best caregivers in the city. Our clients send reviews and feedback after every service.
 
We visit and meet the caregivers to ensure they are qualified to watch your cat. Once we double check availability with the caregiver for your dates, you may meet and visit the perspective caregiver. The in-home cat boarding service provides a no cost, no obligation meet and greet for the client and potential caregiver to see if it will be a good fit.
 
In-home cat boarding services offer cats individual attention, your cat/s would be the only pets in the apartment. They can also keep up with your pet’s regular routine — including eating schedules, grooming necessities, and daily playtime requirements — so your cat has less anxiety while you’re away.

Kitty in NY isn’t just about connecting owners and caregivers but also ensuring quality through caregiver reference checks, reviews, personal interviews, online training and follow up during the boarding:

1. Is the caregiver’s home safe? Before you head out to tour Europe, head over to the caregiver's apartment that you’re considering to confirm your cat will be placed in a cat friendly, secure home. The meet and greet is free, it is the best way to ensure the caregiver we selected is your best match. We can propose several caregivers until you find your match.
2. Are the caregivers responsible and reliable? We meet and interview all our caregivers. They have been cat owners that for different reasons do not own a cat at the moment. They have the experience of taking care of a cat and enjoy cat company.
3. Our caregivers have no pets of their own, your cat will be the only pet in the apartment. This helps reduce the stress of your cat and the time to get adjusted to the new environment.
4. What’s the daily routine of your cat? If your cat needs his pill at a certain time of day, or likes to play with you before dinner time, be sure that the in-home boarding care will be accommodating following your cat's routine. Consider feeding, medication, physical needs and hygienic needs. All those details will be included in the contract.
5. Provide full disclosure. In addition to interviewing the in-home cat caregiver, providing an out-of-town contact number, it’s a cat parent’s job to be open and transparent about a cat’s needs. Share as much info about your cat’s personality, needs and medical history as possible to ensure your pet has a fabulous time on his vacation!

The first cat with Siamese markings appeared on an engraving discovered by a Mr. Pallas on his journey into Russia in 1794. There is no record of Siamese cats as a breed until the 1800s. In 1884 the departing British Consul-General Gould was given a Siamese cat by the Siamese king as a gift. It was a great honor since the cat came from the royal family. The progeny of this cat given to Consul-General Gould was exhibited by his sister, Mrs. Lilian (Gould) at the Crystal Palace Show in October 1885. These cats were so extraordinary that they captured immediate attention. The first Siamese cat club was founded in England in 1902.

Siamese cats arrived to the United States at the beginning of the 20th century. The Siamese Cat Society of America was founded in April 1909. Its popularity reached a peak in the 50's and 60's when Siamese cats appeared in movies such as "That Darn Cat", "The Incredible Journey", & Disney's classic "Lady and the Tramp".

The Siamese is an very intelligent cat. They are talkative and tend to become very close to their human companions. Their meow is quite unique (deep and loud).
​

The Siamese coat pattern is beautiful. The face, ears, paws and tail have darker colouring, the body is light. Their amazing eyes are blue and almond shaped. The most commonly known colours are seal, blue, chocolate and lilac.

New Yorkers love Siamese cats. Many of our clients contact us with lovely Siamese kittens. If you need to book an in-home boarding service or a cat sitting service try to contact us at least two weeks before your departure. Kitty in NY offers the best in-home boarding solutions in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx.
