Plan for New Cattery

The MSPCA has submitted plans to replace the cattery at Ard Jerkyll.

If approved, the new building would be built on the same footprint as the existing pens.

A favourite place both for people looking to give a four legged friend a furever home or even just to visit and see the cats, the existing structure is 30-years-old and at the end of its life.

The MSCPA’s application says: ‘The current wooden pens are 30 years old – they leak, they’re draughty, and (most important) the wood is difficult to keep hygienically clean because it’s porous.’

The charity has worked with Pedigree Pens to design the cattery, having been impressed with the work it has done with, for example, Aristocat Cattery in Douglas.
