A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Pontypridd

Pontypridd gets rain in every season, frosty spells in winter and short days from November. On a cat round that means checking the heating and the windows, drying a cat that comes in wet, and fitting visits into daylight when the owner asks for it.

When owners travel

Cat visits peak over the summer holidays, Christmas and New Year, with a second wave on the February, May and October half-terms and the bank-holiday weekends. Outside those dates, weekday visits cover work trips and weekends away.

Know your Pontypridd areas

Trallwng and Graig lie close to the centre, Treforest to the south, Rhydyfelin south east, and Cilfynydd and Glyncoch to the north. Living close to Treforest makes that corner the easy one to cover.
