Kilsby Cattery

Kilsby Cattery is licensed by West Northamptonshire Council for cat boarding in Kilsby. The council's most recent inspection awarded it 5 stars out of 5.

That puts it in the 77% of Northamptonshire licensed businesses rated 4 stars or above (59 of 77).

Its licence runs to 31 December 2026, 5 months away. Longer licence terms are awarded to higher-rated operators, which is why a distant expiry date is usually a good sign in itself.

On its own website the business describes itself as: "Welcome to Kilsby Cattery, we are a fully licensed and insured family run business with 35 years experience in animal welfare. Contact Kilby Cattery today!" We reproduce that as a summary of what it says about itself, not as anything we have checked.

Its site advertises cat boarding.

We found no entry for this business on the ICO register of fee payers. That is common for sole traders and is not necessarily a failing, but a business holding your address and door key would normally be expected to be registered.

Under the star rating scheme a 5-star operator qualifies for a licence of up to 3 years and correspondingly fewer unannounced inspections, so the rating affects how often the council will look in as well as what it thought at the last visit.

West Northamptonshire Council publishes an address for this licence, which is set out in full below.

Its website publishes 3 rates, from £18 per day to £28 per day. Prices come from the business's own site rather than from us, and each one is shown below with the sentence it appeared in.

We read 7 pages of its website on 2 August 2026, about 1,356 words in total, and extracted 11 details from them.

We last read West Northamptonshire Council's register 5 months ago, so treat the expiry date in particular as indicative rather than current.

This page reproduces factual entries from public registers. It is not a review, a recommendation, or an endorsement, and we have no commercial relationship with the businesses listed. Council star ratings are the licensing authority's assessment of risk and compliance, not a measure of service quality.

Where these figures come from

• Local authority animal activity licence registers — English local authorities. Factual fields extracted from each council's published public register: trading name, licence number, licensable activity, star rating and expiry date. Where a council redacts an address — as they routinely do for home boarders operating from a residential address — the record is kept without a location and never geolocated by inference. Licence: Open Government Licence v3.0. Refreshed 1 August 2026.
• Operators' own public websites — The licensed businesses themselves. Factual metadata — description, opening hours, contact details and advertised services — extracted from each operator's own public website. robots.txt is checked and obeyed before every fetch, requests are rate-limited to one per host per run, and every field links back to the page it came from with the date we last checked. Claims operators make about themselves are not verified by us. Licence: Summarised, not reproduced. Refreshed 1 August 2026.
• Postcode geography — Office for National Statistics / Ordnance Survey, via postcodes.io. Postcodes already published in council registers are resolved to a parish or ward and coordinates. Only postcodes the council itself published are looked up. Licence: Open Government Licence v3.0. Refreshed 1 August 2026.
• Licence details are republished from the West Northamptonshire Council public register under the Open Government Licence.
• Companies House and ICO entries are matched by trading name and corroborated by location; unconfirmed matches are not published.
