Cat Behavior Coaching

"...because there's no such thing as a BAD CAT!"

Is your cat...

Peeing/pooping outside of the litter box?
Hyperactive and destructive?
Fighting with your other cat(s?
A new family member who needs to meet the rest of the gang?

I can help!

Your cat really is (or *can be*) a GOOD cat, and he/she really does love you! But like all relationships, there can be struggles, problems, and frustrations. We all know that communication and understanding are key to healthy human relationships (er, we wish we all did!)...it's the same with cats!

My goals...

Identifying the Root Cause

By conducting an in-home (or virtual) assessment of the cat's environment and daily routine, I can offer insight as to what may be causing him to act in undesirable ways.

*For inappropriate peeing/pooping, a medical evaluation by your cat's veterinarian must be completed before beginning a behavior assessment.

Making a Plan for Change

Two decades of experience using positive reinforcement and *fear-free training provide the foundations of my coaching. After identifying the root cause/source of the cat's behavior, I will guide you in not only how to have a more nurturing coexistence with your cat, but also how to amend his environment to become more cat-positive. This is often the key to ending most (if not all) bad behaviors.

L-O-V-E

Are you frustrated by your cat's:

Shyness?
Hyper-activity?
Excessive vocalizations?
Aggressive play?

Let me teach you how to play with/snuggle with/connect with your cat on a deeper, more loving level...YES, you CAN enjoy that "lovin' feeling" again!

Building YOUR Confidence

When my first cat, Muki, was diagnosed with a heart condition, all-of-a-sudden, his life depended on medication. I had never given a cat pills before. I was terrified that I would fail, and that Muki would suffer. Nobody offered to help, and everyone at the vet clinic was too busy, anyway, to take the time that would have been required. Videos were little help, and I literally spent the first week in tears as we struggled together with the new routine.

No pet owner should have to experience that fear and anxiety...knowing your pet needs medical attention is stressful enough.

Through that experience (and many others that would come in my years at the animal shelter), I learned a lot of tricks that I want to share with you! I can provide training for low-no stress medication administration of oral, ocular (eyes) and aural (ears) medications. I am also adept at administering Insulin injections.
