The kennel's things-to-know page lists the small pets it boards and notes the cage request.
Why your own cage
A cage from home smells like home, and your pet knows how to use its own water bottle, hideout and perches. Small animals are easily stressed by change, and a familiar enclosure is one less change.
Before you drop off
Bring the cage along with your pet's food, and anything else your pet uses every day. Mark the cage with your name and your pet's name, because the kennel asks that all belongings be marked. Ask the kennel what size works when you call 707-678-6600.
Which pets are included
Rabbits, gerbils, hamsters, rats, guinea pigs and birds are all boarded. There is no list price, so ask about small pet rates when you book. Start on the small pet boarding page.
More help
The small pet packing guide goes through the full list. Your pet needs its own cage even for a short stay, and the small pets FAQ answers related questions.
Mark everything
Put your name and your pet's name on the cage and on any carrier, bottle or food container. The kennel asks that belongings be marked, and a label saves a mix-up at pick-up.
Call first
Because the request depends on the animal, a quick phone call settles it. Say what you have, what size it is and how you plan to bring it. Then you will know whether to carry your own cage on drop-off day.
