Lap of luxury

Article Abstract:

Veterinarian Scott Ivers founded the Cat Hotel because he has 7 cats and could not find a boarding facility he liked. The hotel offers spacious 'condos' and an exercise area with trees. Rooms go for $25-35 a day and Ivers is doing well enough to consider expanding or franchising his concept.
