I can help you in a variety of ways with your kitty.

Behavior Issues: 

• Inappropriate elimination-not using the litter box or spraying

• Aggression towards people or other animals

• Scratching and clawing furniture

• Fear, anxiety or shyness

• Depression, lethargy or not grooming

• Excessive grooming, licking or chewing

Other ways I can help:

• Providing mental stimulation and helping with prevention of behavior issues through clicker training, trick training and enrichment

• Introducing your resident cat(s) to a new person or a new animal resident

• Introducing a new cat to your resident pets

• Preparing your cat for new human baby

• Teaching children how to properly interact with your cat

• Carrier training for travel, visits to the veterinarian or safer locations for walking

• Teaching your cat to love walking on harness and leash

• Advice on multi-cat homes and helping cats get along

• Help with teaching your cat to be more accepting of petting, handling, brushing or nail trims using cooperative care and start buttons

• Transitioning an outdoor cat to living indoors

I offer Zoom consultations and in person consultations. Both types of consultations include advice, guidance, and recommendations for the issue you have hired me to resolve. Additionally, I will make recommendations for improving your cat's life now and in the future to prevent behavior issues from developing. Whether I come in person or we do a Zoom consultation, I do not need to see your cat(s) in person.

Differences between an in-person consultation versus a Zoom consultation:

In-person consultation- Services are available within 40 miles of Escondido.

• You will receive a personalized notebook with supplemental documents.

• I can walk around your home and yard and make recommendations if necessary.

Zoom consultation (Services are available globally online)

• Supplemental documents will be emailed to you.

• You must have a mobile device (laptop or phone) with a good Wi-Fi connection so you can walk around your home and yard so I can make recommendations if necessary.

• An AI Zoom summary will be emailed to you after the consultation.

I travel up to 40 miles for consultations and in home private sessions. Up to 30 miles there is no mileage charge. Over 30 miles and up to 40 miles there is an additional $25 mileage fee.
