What is Behavioural Therapy?

A lot of people think cats just “have their own ways”, but it is not true! Most of the feline behavioural problems are caused by misunderstandings between human and cats. You and your cat (s) can both live better lives if the behavioural problems are modified.

What are cat behavioural problems?

• Destructive marking behaviours such as spraying (urine) and middening (feces)
• Inappropriate elimination (urinating , defecating) outside of the litter box
• Clawing and other destructive behaviours (e.g. scratching the furniture)
• Aggressive behaviour with the owner, other cats, or people within the household (e.g. clawing, biting, chasing, bullying, etc)
• Yowling, inappropriate vocalization, and compulsive behaviours
• Other so-called “bad behaviour”
• Other trainings: Introducing (and re-introducing) new kittens, other cats, other animals, or new people to the household; cat care advices, taking care of kittens, etc.

How does it work?

1. An initial phone call will be arranged (free of charge) to get the basic story of the problem

2. A detailed profile of the cat's history will be filled by the owner before the consultation

3. Two hours consultation: observation of the cat's body language, interaction to his/her environment, human, other cats and stimulants (e.g. food, toys, etc)

4. A written report will be provided within one week with all the detailed advice given during the consultation, different modification programmes will be set up to follow.

5. Follow up phone calls and emails are included in the fee and are arranged as certain behavioural problems will need weeks or months to be modified.
