Cat

About

My philosophy is that there are no "bad" cats; they are merely ​communicating in the only way they know-how. It is my absolute ​passion to bridge the gap in communication between cats and ​their owners.

With 18 years of experience as a veterinary technician , I bring a ​wealth of knowledge in animal care. My passion extends to a ​specialized focus on cat behavior, where I have been studying and ​providing consultations for over 15 years. I am dedicated to ​enhancing the well-being of our feline friends and their guardians ​through understanding, compassion , and expert guidance.

Shelters

Cats often experience high levels of stress ​while in shelter environments. At Kitty Be ​Good, I prioritize alleviating this stress and ​reducing the length of their stay by ​providing comprehensive training to staff ​and volunteers. Training covers various ​aspects, including housing, enrichment, ​low-stress handling, and clicker training.

For cats that exhibit unwanted behaviors, ​making them less attractive to potential ​adopters, I offer evaluations and behavior ​modification services. With our clicker ​training and behavior modification ​techniques, I aim to increase their chances ​of finding loving homes.
