I was so nervous leaving our four kittens while ​we were away but Debra at Whiskers is ​wonderful and her devotion to the family we ​leave with her is obvious. She provided photos ​and videos while we were away so that we ​wouldn't stress and even won over our oldest ​Willow. Thank you so much Debra I wouldn't ​want anyone else to look after my four kittens/ ​cats for me.

I have left my Cat at Whiskers on multiple ​occasions now, I am so at ease knowing she is ​being looked after so diligently by Debbie and ​Team. Regular updates and a beautiful space ​with fresh bedding and toys, the cats have ​absolutely everything they could need which ​puts me at peace while I’m away!

Patricia & bobo

I can’t recommend Whiskers at Iskaheen enough, Debra started looking after my elderly cat Bobo when she first opened after a recommendation. In time Bobo required specialist care, at times I was called away overnight for work and Debra never failed to look after him with compassion and kindness. He was always happy at Whiskers at Iskaheen.
