Cat Napping Suburban Retreat’s Ebony Centazzo. Picture: DAMJAN JANEVSKI
BY CHARLENE GATT EBONY Centazzo is looking like the cat that got the cream after opening Wyndham’s first cat-only boarding facility less than six months ago. Cat Napping Suburban Retreat is offering pampered felines a retreat of their own while their owners are away.
FUNDS&FELiNES Ms Centazzo, 28, was keen to combine her joint passions for travel and pets in a business venture. She ticked the first box working as a travel agent, but yearned to be her own boss. “I’ve always wanted to have my own business – I think because my dad had his own business – and it was just a matter of
trying to find something I was happy with,” Ms Centazzo said. “My two passions are travel and pets, so I started researching different kinds of businesses, from pet sitting to dog boarding and that type of thing, and I just stumbled across a cattery around Collingwood and Brunswick that ran out of a warehouse.
