El Macero is a quiet, mostly owner-occupied community, and its households change little from year to year. Here is what a stay looks like for a cat from there.

A small, settled community
El Macero has about 360 households and 796 residents, with a median age of 64. About 95 percent of homes are owner-occupied and the median home value is about $1,296,900. The national share points to about 120 households with a cat. That is an estimate from Census and AVMA data, not a count of cats.
Fewer than 9 percent of residents moved in the past year. These households tend to have had the same cat for years, which makes the senior-cat details worth a look.
Two highways and a short finish
The route takes 8.7 miles of Interstate 80 and 4.1 of Highway 113, with a short country-road finish. The trip is 14.4 miles and about 21 minutes without traffic.
The 7:30 to 11:30 AM drop-off window pairs well with a morning flight or a trip to the airport; the afternoon window runs 2:00 to 5:00 PM.
Longer trips
Owners here often travel for weeks. Ten nights is 10 x $35 = $350 on the 2026 rates; a month of 30 nights is 30 x $35 = $1,050. There is no separate long-term cat rate on the sheet. Boarding is charged by the night, and the long-term cat boarding guide explains how longer stays work.
Medications and older cats
Medications are given at no extra charge, which suits cats who need daily pills. The senior cat page and the cat vaccine guide cover the rest.

What pet owners say
This place is fantastic! I have one super easy going dog and one that is very much the opposite, she takes a long time to be comfortable with strangers and can be aggressive. I chose Happy Paws originally because the dogs can go in and out without having to be put on a leash. I am so happy I made that decision. Now my...
Clean and well organized, with a friendly, helpful staff. Our two pitties love their periodic "vacation" stays at Happy Paws! We live an hour away, but it's well worth the drive. Highly recommended.
