Questions cattery owners ask.
What is the best booking software for a cattery in the UK?
For most catteries, the deciding factors are cost in the quiet season, up-front payment to stop no-shows, and vaccination record keeping. Sable handles all three for 3% of payments through Sable. No monthly fee, no setup fee, so a quiet month costs little. Sable is built and tested at Kuruba, where Sable’s founder works.
Why do monthly fees hurt catteries more than kennels?
Catteries are usually smaller businesses with sharper seasonal swings. A monthly software bill is a much bigger slice of a cattery's takings — and it's charged in full through the quiet months. Sable has no monthly bill: 3% of each payment made through Sable, taken when the customer pays. Stripe’s card fee is separate. You keep the rest, less Stripe’s card fee. Busy or quiet, there is no software bill.
Does Sable track cat vaccinations?
Yes. Every cat has one profile holding flu and enteritis vaccination records, diet, vet details, medication and quirks — captured once, attached to every booking, and easy to show for licence conditions.
Can families book multiple cats together?
Yes. A household books its cats together: two cats, one booking, one payment. If they need different dates, they ask you and you change the booking.
Do I have to set it up myself?
No. We come to your cattery, set up your pens, rates and cancellation policy, and migrate your existing client and cat records. Free, and we stay until it's done.
We come out and set it up.
Free, in person. Starting in Scotland; elsewhere, ask us — your rates and policies set up the way you already run, your records brought across and your diary in use before we leave. Also for boarding kennels, groomers, day care, pet taxis and trainers.
