If you’re an expat in Thailand, you probably travel more than most—visa runs, work trips, home visits. And if you have a cat, there’s always the question:
Who will care for them when you’re away?
You may have searched for a sitter or a Phuket pet hotel and wondered what’s best. While there are several options, not all are designed for long-term stays—or for cats specifically.
At Lazy Cat Hotel, we specialize in stress-free, long-stay boarding for cats only. Here’s why our cat-only Phuket pet hotel is the preferred choice for expats who want peace of mind while they’re away.
TL;DR – Why Expats Choose Lazy Cat for Long-Term Boarding
- ✅ Quiet, feline-only environment (no dogs, no cages)
- ✅ Air-conditioned, clean private rooms with daily care
- ✅ Long-stay discounts and spa grooming during stay
- ✅ Staff trained to care for senior, shy, or special-needs cats
- ✅ Optional photo/video updates for peace of mind
1. Why a Phuket Pet Hotel Makes More Sense Than a Sitter
Hiring a sitter sounds convenient, but can they monitor your cat daily? What if your flight is delayed? What if something goes wrong?
At Lazy Cat Hotel, your cat:
- Is supervised every day
- Has their room cleaned and litter changed daily
- Enjoys climate control and fresh air
- Gets routine care, attention, and spa options
- Never shares space with dogs or strangers
Our Phuket pet hotel isn’t just a place to stay. It’s a dedicated, professionally run space designed with cat well-being in mind.
2. Designed for Long-Term Comfort
Not all pet hotels are created equal, especially when it comes to long stays. At Lazy Cat, every room includes:
- A/C and air purifiers
- Private windows and elevated perches
- Wall-mounted toys and soft bedding
- Daily sterilization and parasite control
- Fully enclosed rooms (not cages or crates)
That’s what makes our cat-only Phuket pet hotel feel more like a retreat than a kennel.
3. Expat-Friendly Services That Just Work
We’ve built our services around the way expats live:
- Flexible drop-off and pick-up times
- Long-stay discounts after 30 nights
- Support for last-minute schedule changes
- Weekly or on-demand updates via LINE or WhatsApp
- Spa services to keep your cat clean and fresh during their stay
No follow-ups, no chasing down sitters, no worrying while you’re away.
4. Perfect for Senior or Special-Needs Cats
Have an older cat who needs medication? A shy one who hides under beds? A long-haired floof who mats easily?
We’re trained to handle:
- Daily medications
- Senior care routines
- Grooming and coat maintenance
- Timid, anxious, or extra-sensitive cats
Plus, we offer two-story rooms, duplex options, and bonded pair stays for multi-cat households.
5. How to Book Your Cat’s Stay
Here’s how easy it is:
- Message us on LINE, Facebook, or WhatsApp
- Confirm your travel dates and preferred room
