Long-Term Cat Boarding: How to Choose a Cat Hotel for Monthly or Yearly Stays
Traveling to another province or country, temporarily relocating, renovating your home, or dealing with personal commitments can sometimes make it difficult to care for your cat for several weeks or even months.
For long-term cat boarding, choosing the right place is very different from booking a stay for just one or two nights. In addition to cleanliness and safety, owners should also consider the environment, their cat’s stress level, daily care routines, and the overall cost of long-term cat boarding.
Everyday Cat Hotel provides cat boarding services for both short- and long-term stays, ranging from a few nights to monthly cat boarding and extended stays of several months. Each cat stays in a private room and is cared for by our team throughout their stay.
Who Is Long-Term Cat Boarding Suitable For?
A long-term cat hotel can be a practical solution for owners in many situations, including:
Working overseas for 1–12 months
Studying abroad
Moving house or renovating your home
Waiting for a new condo or residence to become pet-friendly
Traveling outside Bangkok for an extended period
Looking for new accommodation that allows cats
Needing temporary cat care while recovering or handling personal matters
Any situation where you are unable to care for your cat for several weeks or months
Whether you need to board your cat for one month, several months, or are looking for yearly cat boarding, the most important consideration is finding a place where your cat can live comfortably and maintain a routine that is as close to home as possible.
How Is Monthly Cat Boarding Different from a Short Stay?
For a short stay of only a few days, owners may mainly focus on convenience and location.
However, for monthly cat boarding or other extended stays, there are more factors to consider because the hotel will essentially become your cat’s temporary home.
1. The Room Should Provide Enough Space
Cats staying for several weeks or months should have enough space to sleep, stretch, walk around, and change positions comfortably.
At Everyday Cat Hotel, cats stay in private rooms rather than shared cages. We offer several room sizes depending on the number of cats and the length of stay.
2. Temperature and Air Quality Matter
For long-term stays, proper temperature control and good air quality become especially important.
At Everyday Cat Hotel, the cat rooms are air-conditioned 24 hours a day and equipped with air purifiers to help maintain a clean and comfortable environment.
3. Consistent Daily Care Is Essential
Cats need more than food, water, and a clean litter box.
Every cat has a different personality. Some love to play, some prefer more personal space, while others simply need more time to adjust to unfamiliar people and surroundings.
Everyday Cat Hotel has caregivers available 24 hours a day, and the owner also stays at the cat hotel. This allows us to closely observe each cat and respond quickly if anything seems unusual.
Will My Cat Be Stressed During a Long Stay?
This is one of the most common questions owners ask when considering long-term cat boarding.
During the first few days, some cats may need time to adjust to their new surroundings. Depending on the cat’s personality, this may take anywhere from a few hours to several days, especially for shy cats or cats that are not comfortable around unfamiliar people.
Maintaining a consistent routine can help reduce stress. This may include:
Feeding at approximately the same times as at home
Continuing with the cat’s usual food
Providing uninterrupted rest time
Allowing time outside the room to walk and play
Having familiar caregivers look after the cat
Bringing a blanket, toy, or other suitable item that smells like home
For cats staying long term, caregivers also have more time to learn their individual personalities and preferences, allowing the care routine to be adjusted accordingly.
Which Room Should I Choose for Monthly Cat Boarding?
For a short stay, a standard-sized room may be perfectly suitable for one cat.
For monthly cat boarding or stays lasting several months, however, choosing a larger room may give your cat more space to move, stretch, and relax comfortably.
Everyday Cat Hotel offers several room sizes. The most suitable option will depend on:
Number of cats
Size and age of the cats
Personality and activity level
Length of stay
Your budget
If you are unsure which room to choose, simply let our team know the number of cats, their ages, approximate weights, and how long they will be staying. We can help recommend the most suitable option.
Note: Food and Sand are not included in the price
Can I Board My Cat for a Year?
For owners who need to travel or live overseas for an extended period, such as six months or one year, yearly cat boarding can be a practical alternative to leaving a cat with friends or relatives, especially if they do not have experience caring for cats.
Everyday Cat Hotel can accommodate cats for extended stays of several months. If you are considering yearly cat boarding or another particularly long stay, we recommend contacting us in advance so we can plan the room, daily care, food arrangements, and overall costs.
For very long stays, planning ahead also helps keep your cat’s routine consistent and makes it easier for owners to manage expenses.
Note: Food and Sand are not included in the price
How Much Does Long-Term Cat Boarding Cost?
The cost of long-term cat boarding usually depends on several factors, including:
Room size
Number of cats
Length of stay
Travel dates and season
Additional services required
Everyday Cat Hotel offers rooms starting from approximately THB 360 per night, with packages available for different lengths of stay.
For customers looking for monthly cat boarding, stays of several months, or yearly cat boarding, we recommend contacting us directly for a long-stay package quotation, as pricing may vary depending on room size, number of cats, and total duration.
Long-term packages can also provide a more attractive average daily rate than calculating the entire stay using standard nightly pricing.
Please note: Room rates do not include cat food or litter. This allows each cat to continue using the food and litter they are already familiar with as part of their normal routine.
What Should I Prepare Before Long-Term Cat Boarding?
Before checking your cat into a hotel for an extended stay, it is helpful to provide detailed information about their daily routine, especially for stays of one month or longer.
Food
We recommend bringing the food your cat normally eats.
Suddenly changing diets may cause some cats to stop eating or experience digestive problems.
Cat Litter
If your cat is accustomed to a particular type of litter, continuing to use the same type during the stay can make the adjustment easier.
Medication and Supplements
If your cat takes medication or supplements regularly, please provide clear instructions to the hotel team in advance.
Health Information
Let the caregivers know about any medical conditions, allergies, behavioural characteristics, or other special considerations.
Vaccination Record
For the safety of every cat staying at the hotel, your cat should have an up-to-date vaccination record in accordance with the hotel’s boarding requirements.
How Will I Know How My Cat Is Doing?
One of the biggest concerns for owners leaving their cats for an extended period is simple:
“How is my cat doing?”
Everyday Cat Hotel sends regular photo and video updates, allowing owners to follow their cat’s daily life even while traveling elsewhere in Thailand or overseas.
For long-term stays, these regular updates also allow owners to see how their cat gradually adjusts—from the first few days in a new environment to becoming more comfortable with the hotel and caregivers.
