[City of Napa - Parks Locations & Amenities](https://www.cityofnapa.org/356/Parks-Facilities) - The Napa County Animal Shelter is at 942 Hartle Court, Napa, and appointments are required for licensing. [Napa County - Animal Shelter](https://www.napacounty.gov/AnimalShelter) Sources: [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://api.census.gov/data/2024/acs/acs5); [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap (free-flow, no traffic)](https://project-osrm.org/); pet households = ACS households x AVMA 2024 shares (an estimate, not a count). Drive time is free-flow and runs slow on Midway Road; allow extra time. Napa is the farthest of our cat pages, so a stay here usually means a weekend away or a longer trip. For those, the one-way drive is less important than what the cat gets at the end of it. ## Quick facts - About 52 minutes, 38.4 miles from Napa - Medications included, house or own food at no charge - $35 a night, $30 for an additional cat sharing a tower - Estimated 9,620 Napa households with a cat ## Napa to Midway Road The route leaves Napa on Highway 29, joins Highway 12 for about 12 miles and Interstate 80 for about 19.9 miles, then turns onto Midway Road. The free-flow estimate is 52 minutes. Build in extra time before a flight or an event. ## Napa's households Napa has about 78,239 residents and 29,984 households. About 41 percent rent and about 28 percent have children. If national shares held, about 9,620 homes would have a cat; that is an estimate, not a count. A cat who is used to a quiet house can find a new place stressful, so a calm tower with its own litter box and blanket and a cat tree helps. Medications are given at no extra charge, which is useful for older cats. ## A wine-country weekend A Napa or Sonoma weekend is an easy short stay. The [wine weekend page](https://happypawskennels.com/occasions/napa-wine-weekend/) lays out how to plan the drive and the drop-off windows. Two nights for one cat is 2 x $35 = $70, and a long weekend of 3 nights is 3 x $35 = $105. The kennel confirms every reservation, so send your request as soon as the dates are set. ## Food and feeding House cat food is canned pate and a chicken-and-rice kibble. A cat on a prescription or sensitive diet can eat its own, brought in the original bag with amounts in cups or spoons. First-time boarders may skip a meal or two, and the staff offer something tempting if a cat keeps refusing. ## Licensing in Napa County The Napa County Animal Shelter is at 942 Hartle Court in Napa, and the county licenses dogs online through DocuPet. For a stay at Happy Paws, the paperwork is the rabies and FVRCP record for a cat, plus a boarding agreement filled in once. ### Sources (checked October 19, 2026) - [U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://api.census.gov/data/2024/acs/acs5) - [AVMA 2024 pet ownership shares](https://www.avma.org/news/pet-population-continues-increase-while-pet-spending-declines) - [Happy Paws Kennels 2026 rate sheet (PDF)](https://happypawskennels.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/2026-Rates-EFFECTIVE-1-1-26.pdf) - [Napa County Animal Shelter](https://www.napacounty.gov/AnimalShelter) ### 2026 nightly rates - First Class kennel $72 - Business Class kennel $59 - Economy Class kennel $52 - Cat condo $35 All-inclusive: food, medications and walks. 2026 rates, effective for reservations made on or after Jan 1, 2026.

They even offer treats and baths. So nice to have a place I trust. Everyone is... Deanna M., Google review, July 2026 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.
