Seasonal advice for Southend cat owners

Thames Estuary winds

Southend's estuary position brings strong winds, especially in winter. Keep cat flaps sealed during storms and dry outdoor cats thoroughly after windy evenings.

Sunny summers

Southend enjoys some of the UK's warmest temperatures. Ensure cats have shaded spots and cool water available during hot summer days, especially in east-facing homes.

Seafront safety

Southend has one of the world's longest piers and a busy seafront. Keep cats away from the tourist promenade and ensure microchips are current.
