I don't know what the focus on dogs is about, but I might take my cat to a kennel if I needed it temporarily housed while I was away; is there a specific word for a "cat hotel" ? --Robert W King 11:37, 16 October 2007 (CDT)
- As it is a disambiguation page, if there it is normal usage for cats then you should rewrite it. But check in some reference books first! --Martin Baldwin-Edwards 12:04, 16 October 2007 (CDT)
- Well, that's exactly my point Martin ;). I don't know what the normal usage would be. Perhaps "Cat-house"? But cathouse can also mean a place where sex is traded for money. --Robert W King 12:07, 16 October 2007 (CDT)
