WHAT THEY SAY...
Tabita hates leaving her home, but at Gataia she feels like she's part of the family. Spectacular
space, with the best possible conditions. Mena and João are super attentive and loving, there
was never anything missing for Tabita to feel cared for and loved. For the first time in my life I
was reassured with a hotel for cats.

TABITA
My name is Booling, Booboo to my friends. What I love is when my mum goes on vacation. She
leaves me with my dear aunts at Gataia and I am totally spoiled.

Gataia is Branquinha's second home. She goes in there, asks her aunts to be petted and she
begins to explore everything. She doesn't even see me leaving, and I’m always amazed at how
the chubby little one tucks herself in the little bed she adores.

In addition to the excellent facilities, the hotel is clean, but the main factor is that aunts Maria
João and Filomena are passionate about cats and this is evident from the very first contact.
During all the stays that Naruno had at Gataia, he was always very well treated, I always
watched him on the cameras and received videos of him playing frequently and that always
made me very calm on my travels. So I only have praise and recommendations. Helder and

In December 2019 I needed to leave the country for 5 days and I needed to leave my 2 cats,
Sushi a 4 months old Scotish Fold, and Snowy a 2 and a half months old Scotish Long Hair, in a
safe place, where I could be sure nothing would happen to them. I visited Gataia before making
a decision and I soon realized that the people there loved their guests as if they were their
own. Despite feeling that way, I confess that I left them with a pain in my heart... the first 24
hours, I was always checking the camera to see them, but they were always happy, they ate,
played, slept... everything as if they were at their own home. After 5 days I went to pick them
up and they were happy. Maria João and Filomena were fantastic, sending photos and videos
all the time, but I was really surrendered when I was looking at them on video and Maria João
appeared and Sushi rubbed against her legs and gave his belly to some caresses, Sushi is a very
reserved cat and that showed me how happy he feels there. Undoubtedly a hotel full of
affection

The best hotel to leave your cats. Highly recommend it. There is love, much love for what they
do and for every cat that passes there. And this is reflected in the clean and hygienic space and
environment. Simple decor and a wonderful scent. Mine love the pampering and attention
from their aunts and we are completely relaxed. No worries.

A really special place. I have a diabetic cat, with a tough temper, and Gataia was the only space
where he was fine. My cats stayed 15 days at Gataia and I can only thank them. A clean, calm
space with a unique energy. In addition, professional service! Thank you Filomena for
everything you did for my Sid and specially for Felix!

After meeting Gataia there is no other place where I can leave my boys! the facilities are
excellent and they are super well cared for by people who love animals. The fact that we can
"peek" at them virtually also helps a lot to mitigate homesickness. A magnificent experience,
without a shadow of a doubt and they themselves are doing well, without any kind of stress.
For me (and for them) is the only possible option!

Memecas is already a regular in this fantastic house that Gataia is. He likes staying there so
much that I'm beginning to be afraid he wants to stay and live there! The Hotel is wonderful
with fantastic conditions and has the added value for us of being able to see our kittens 24
hours a day. Aunts are super attentive and full of love to give! I just leave my cat with them and
go on a restful vacation. I strongly recommend this hotel!

The possibility of leaving my cat Marisol in the care of others was something that had always
made me apprehensive. But if doubts and hesitations existed, they all quickly dissipated as
soon as I entered Gataia. You can see that nothing was left to chance when creating the hotel,
as every detail on the space is thought to provide maximum comfort to its guests: a true five
star hotel for cats! Filomena and Maria João are very experienced and dedicated hosts, who
received us with great affection and who, from the first moment, were available to respond to
all the needs that Marisol's condition demanded. In the case of an extended stay, it was
especially comforting to be able to access images of my cat in real time through an application
installed on the mobile phone. More than a hotel for cats, Gataia has become a second family
