A bit about Auntie Ali

I hope you are enjoying my kitty-care website.
As you can see, I am totally in love with our feline friends. So much so, that I have made it my business to help busy cat owners in West Lothian by providing care and cuddles when they can’t.

My name is Allison Poulter, founder of Alicat Purrfections. I have always had a passion for cats and decided to set up the cat sitting business in May 2018. I have years of experience in Management, Customer Service and Pet Care. I do ad-hoc Support Work for the Thistle Foundation in Edinburgh, a charity which supports people with life-long conditions/disabilities to live independent lives. It’s a role which comes with lots of responsibilities and I have been a Member of Disclosure Scotland since 2013 (Police check/PVG scheme). I am fully insured and offer a dedicated home cat sitting service throughout West Lothian.

Alicat Purrfections helps cat owners in West Lothian who need someone to feed and check on their cat(s) when they are away. If you would like to find out more, or have questions (I hope you do), then please get in touch. I look forward to meeting you and your pawsome cat(s) soon.

Alicat Purrfections has a team of furbulous Kitty Aunts to help take care of your cat(s). We are an award winning team and have won multiple awards. In 2023 we won the Scottish Enterprise Award for ‘Best Visiting Cat Care Enterprise 2023 – West Lothian’. In April 2024 we won ‘Pet Sitter of the Year – North Lanarkshire, West Lothian and Edinburgh’ at the Local Pet Awards in Glasgow hosted by Carol Smiley. In May 2024 we won ‘Cat Sitting Service of the Year’ at the Scotland Prestige Awards 2024/25.

Meet the Team… Emma, Alison, Allison (Auntie Ali) and Sammy.
