Last Thanksgiving we discovered the most amazing feline boarding location in the city. It's a relatively new place by the name of Feline Wishes and Caviar Dreams. The owner is a woman named Lisa and she is truly an animal person. The facilities themselves are extremely clean and welcoming. They have three different sizes of feline accommodations, pensions, villas and palazzios, all of which have fantastic kitty climbing/scratching posts and kitty windows. The kitty guests greatly enjoy being able to perch up high and have a great view of the surroundings. However, while the facilities themselves are quite nice, what impressed me the most about Feline Wishes was how happy our cat, Rogue, was about staying there. We have experimented with several other pet boarding locations in the city over the years, and without fail, every time we pick Rogue up, he looks slightly traumatized and won't speak to us for several days. When Rogue made his first visit to Feline Wishes, we immediately noticed a difference. In addition to Rogue receiving excellent care at Feline Wishes (Lisa called me personally after Rogue had been there a day or two, just to let me know how he was doing), upon arriving to pick Rogue up, while he was happy to see us, he had clearly had a wonderful time while there. He was relaxed and happy, and even more amazingly, was not at all upset with us over the next few days. That, in and of itself, would make Feline Wishes an excellent place for cat boarding, but when that is coupled with the superb care and facilities and the personal attention given to every guest by the owner and staff, I can't think of a place I would recommend more highly.
Please feel free to contact me directly (elaumakani@gmail.com). It is such a great comfort to me to know that we have a place we can leave Rogue and know that he is happy and in good hands, that I would be happy to answer any questions for those who are interested in Feline Wishes.
Feline Wishes is located at 600 Bryant St. and the cross street is 4th. Contact number is 415-543-5365 and the website is www.felinewishes.com.
Incidentally, Rogue has stayed at Feline Wishes since his first visit at Thanksgiving and has received the same high-level of care each time he has been a guest there. He's currently looking forward to his next visit.
