We opened Stagenhoe Cat Hotel in 2019, we are both life long animal lovers and wanted to provide a high quality yet affordable boarding option for cats that would ensure individual care and attention. As a family we have a host of pets including Indie, Colin and Charlie-Rose the ponies, Inka and Jenna the labradors, Boots the cat , Annie the sheep, around 50 chickens and Mrs Shiny the tropical fish and her friends!
Jo runs a home boarding business for Dogs alongside the farm and so we are host to many local dogs who come to stay at the farm while their owners enjoy trips away.
Sophie Papworth
Sophie has been with us since spring 2019, she is a real asset to the cat hotel and is very diligent at looking after all of the cats.
Sophie is a student at Shuttleworth Agricultural College and will be finishing her Level 3 National Diploma in Animal Management this year. We are really happy that Sophie manages to fit in working here too.
Sophie lives in the village with her family and her mini Schnauzer Max!
Amanda White
Amanda joined us in October, she is passionate about the cats and loves spending time with all of our guests.
Amanda is a lifelong animal lover and has experience of owning many different animals, her current pets are Josh the Shetland pony, (who also lives here at the farm) Peppa, Chilli and Nala the dogs, Tommy, Angel and Jack the cats and some tropical fish!
Iona Roberts
Iona may be only 10 but she deserves her mention here as 'Head of Cat cuddles'
Iona is the middle child in our animal mad family and dedicates alot of her time to helping with the cats and making sure that those who enjoy it are offered lots of cuddles and fuss and playtime for the younger ones or those who are used to having children around at home.
When Iona is not helping with the cats you will probably find her with her pony Colin, or you might see her cart-wheeling around the farm!
