Cat care tips for Nijmegen

Keeping your cat safe in the Netherlands' oldest city

Hilly terrain and indoor safety

Nijmegen's unique hilly landscape means homes can have split levels or open staircases. Brief your sitter on any areas where your cat might need supervision.

River city humidity

Nijmegen's location along the Waal river means humidity can vary. Ensure your cat's sleeping area is ventilated in summer and draft-free in winter.

University city activity

Nijmegen is an active student city with events, protests, and outdoor activities. If your cat is noise-sensitive, identify quiet retreat spots and share them with your sitter.

Gelderland winters

Gelderland winters can be cold with occasional frost. Confirm heating is working properly and ask your sitter to keep warm bedding spots accessible for your cat.
