Two cats from one household can share a tower, and the second costs $30 a night. Seven nights for one cat is 7 x $35 = $245. Medications are given at no extra charge, and your cat can eat the house food or its own. If you are driving back from Winters on the last day, keep in mind that check-out is by 11:30 AM and an afternoon pick-up adds half a night to the stay, the same rule for cats as for dogs. ## Records and rules Yolo County Animal Services, whose shelter is at 2640 East Gibson Road in Woodland, licenses dogs and treats cat licenses as optional.
