Meet Kitty Poppins

ANGELA CHERIE
 (she/her)
Certified Feline Behavior & Training Specialist
Owner + Operator of Kitty Poppins Cat Nanny

I started Kitty Poppins cat care services in 2013 with the idea that working full time would be awesome if it meant spending it all with cats. I have spent my whole life owning and caring for cats on many levels, learning about their varied tastes, behavior, and biology. As the go-to cat sitter for all my friends and family, it just made sense to offer it on a wider professional scale and thus Kitty Poppins was born!

​

My approach to cat care goes beyond filling a bowl of food and scooping a box. I have a warm nature towards all felines and and understanding of cat behavior and body language that can disarm and comfort even the most skittish of cats in time. I will find a friend in any feline I encounter!

​

Beyond basic care, I also provide feline behavior modification, training and nutritional consultations. I have multiple certifications and have years of experience in day to day care from house calls, pet supplies retail and working in a busy feline boarding facility. My approach to feline wellness and care is based on biological, empirical research, but I am always open to and interested in other perspectives in feline health. â€‹

Kitty Poppins is incredible! My feline, Felix, absolutely adores her. Sometimes I think he enjoys when we leave because it means he gets his twice daily visits and cuddles from Ms. Poppins! Her visits are complete with texts, photos, and videos of their time together which helps me feel connected to Felix while I'm away. She is a cat whisper and is also knowledgeable about cat behavior and nutrition. She is simply fantastic!

Kitty Poppins (Seattle area) is fantastic, terrific, and amazing! My 4 month old kitten, fresh off his final vaccination with paperwork and tags, spent a week at her house and came home a better cat all around (not that he was terrible to begin with, but definitely a handful). I found out I needed a major surgery 48 hours ahead of when it was scheduled, and Kitty Poppins went out of her way to help me get kitten's paperwork submitted to her, and communicated promptly and frequently to help me schedule a dropoff within 24 hours of first finding her. As a cat lover, it's natural and understandable to be nervous about trusting your baby or babies to someone you've yet to meet. As I soon found out, there is nothing to be nervous about with Kitty Poppins. Business license - check mark. Feline experience - check mark. Glowing referrals from both clients AND colleagues - check mark. Medical experience and emergency connections - check mark. And finally, after meeting her on both dropoff and pickup, a kind heart and gentle personality - big check marks! If you have a trip, a move, or an emergency, I highly recommend Kitty Poppins for your furry friends! They are in the capable hands of someone who cares about both your pet, AND you!

I don't think my cat wanted to come home! She did a wonderful job caring for my big, old dude, Norm. She updated me frequently on how he was, rearranged some of the play boxes so that he could look out of the window, and he came back with a nice shiny, smooth coat. Kitty Poppins is definitely my go to cat nanny now!

Angela is nothing short of a "cat whisperer " All I can say is when I got home from my two week vacation, my 3 cats just looked at me like "oh, it's you. So when is Angela coming over?" I know they are in safe and fun! hands.

Angela is amazing :) I was referred to her when another cat hotel was too full to take my cat in during the holidays, I'm so glad they did ! She updates her Instagram daily with photos of her boarding cats so you can see how your cat is getting along with others. She also responds very quickly if you email or text her. Will be asking to board my cat here for all my vacations !

Angela’s Purr Palace must be the best little cat hotel in the world! Our cat Selma loves to hang out there while his hoomans are on vacation. She always sends the best updates and photos, and her love for cats really shines through in everything she does. Thank you Angela!

​

Angela watches our two fur kiddos when my partner and I are away. We trust her experience and knowledge explicitly. She send daily updates on the kids, which we really love! We are so thankful she travels to our home to stay with the kids, it’s nice they get stay in their own environment. Also, it’s a great peace of mind to have someone also checking in on the property. Would suggest Kitty Poppins Cat Nanny to anyone with kitty kids.
