We do not accept responsibility if we are unable to complete grooming tasks.

Medical & Veterinary Treatment During Stay

  • We accept no liability for any illness, injury, death or loss for any reason of your cat which occurs during or after their stay.

 

Food

  • We encourage owners to bring their own supply of cat food as this provides a source of familiarity and comfort for your cat in a new environment. We will feed your cat as per your instructions. There is no change in cost if owners provide their own food.

House of Fluffington Products T&Cs


Product Use

  • All products sold by House of Fluffington, including but not limited to the Home Wall Scratchpost Unit, are designed for domestic use and intended for cats only. Customers are responsible for ensuring the product is suitable for their specific needs and their cat's behavior and environment.

  • The Home Wall Scratchpost Unit must be securely installed into a wall stud to ensure safety and stability, especially for larger or active cats. If you are unsure about wall construction or do not have the necessary tools, we strongly recommend hiring a qualified builder or handyman to carry out the installation. Improper installation may result in damage to the product, property, or injury to pets.
