Behaviour Consultations for Cats

Guidance every step of the way

Specializing in inappropriate elimination, aggression, food seeking behaviours, and multi-cat conflict households. 

How I can help you and your feline friends

  • I help you understand why your cat is doing certain behaviours - meowing, attacking unprovoked, why two cats don't get along 

  • I teach you how to understand your cats needs 

  • Each cat receives a personalized individual behaviour assessment and training plan that also fits into your schedule and routine 

  • Teaching owners or anyone on how to properly interact with their cats and give educational resources​

  • Teaching clicker training and the importance strengthening the bond between both your feline friends and yourself

Services

Every cat and household is unique, and behaviour concerns are often influenced by multiple factors such as environmental, routine, stress, health history, and household dynamics. This is why all new clients begin with an intake form before the 15-minute Feline Focus Intro Call.

​

During the intro call, we'll chat about your concerns, available support options, next steps, and whether I am the right fit for your cat(s) and household. In some cases, referrals or waitlisting may be recommended depending on the needs of the case and current availability. 

Intake & Intro Call

Start by completing a short intake form so I can learn more about your cat(s) behaviour, environment, and goals. This is followed by scheduling a brief Intro call.

Book Your Consultation

After the intro call, a scheduling link will be sent so you can choose a consultation time that works best for you. 

Agreement & Payment

Before your consultation, you'll receive a Feline Focus Training Services Agreement to review and sign, along with payment instructions. Payment is required in advance to confirm your appointment.

In August of 2024 we brought home a new kitten. Things were great and she adjusted to our home and other cat well. Then in November when me and my partner welcomed our new baby home things changed and our adorable new kitten started peeing outside of the litter box and all over our clothes and blankets.  We were at our wits end, tired of having to deal with this inappropriate elimination and taking care of a newborn when we found Chantal. She was amazing with helping us find out why our kitten was peeing everywhere and work out a solution that worked for us to stop her from peeing all over our house! She saved us from rehoming our kitten and brought peace back into our home.
