Because Your Cat's Behavior and Wellbeing Are Deeply Connected

Is your cat stressed, avoiding the litter box or showing aggressive behavior towards people or other pets?
Are you overwhelmed trying to manage your cat’s weight or unsure how to create a complete, balanced diet?

I specialize in the powerful connection between feline behavior and nutrition — offering evidence-based, personalized strategies to improve your cat’s well-being and strengthen your bond.

Whether you're facing behavioral challenges or dietary concerns (or both), I’ll help you understand the “why” behind your cat’s actions and guide you toward real, lasting solutions.

Cats are not small dogs.

Cats haven’t been domesticated nearly as long as dogs, and their physiology, anatomy, and behavior are vastly different. They’ve evolved separately for over 50 million years — yet many pet owners still assume they’re just small dogs. But your pocket panther is a truly independent creature.

While resources for dogs are abundant, cat-specific research remains limited — even though cats are now the most popular pet in many parts of the world.

My mission is to help both cats and their guardians live healthier, happier lives together.

Education is at the heart of my consultations. Understanding feline body language and accessing evidence-based insights into nutrition and behavior is essential. Every cat is unique — and my recommendations are always tailored to your cat’s needs and your lifestyle.

EVERY cat is an individual and may react differently to a situation. 
I want to help you understand YOUR cat(s) better. And find a customized solution for your daily needs.
Let’s work together to bring balance and understanding into your home.

PREPARING FOR YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT:

We will use Zoom for the online/virtual consultations.

You don’t need a zoom account on your computer or phone, but I want to encourage you to check your microphone and camera ahead of time.

  • BLOODWORK RESULTS/URINALYSIS/VETERINARY NOTES

    Please share any lab results from your veterinary clinic with me ahead of the consultation. This can be bloodwork results, urinalysis, or diagnostic notes. If your vet has recommended or performed an allergy test, please also share the results with me.

    Many vets share the diagnostic results with their clients automatically via a client portal. If you did not received any lab results, contact your vet.

    If we are discussing a weight management case please be prepared to share BCS and MCS with me. If you have recently visited a veterinarian with your cat both should be noted on the medical report. If not, WSAVA is a great resource:

    If we are discussing a diagnosed condition like diabetes or IBD I would also need to see the official diagnosis of your vet. I am not a veterinarian, and will not diagnose, treat or cure any disease. My services are to help you understand the importance of dietary management and provide information on clinical nutrition only.

  • VIDEOS AND PHOTOS

    To get photos and videos in advance of our appointment that show the behavior you are concerned about is very helpful. Please collect any videos/clips from your nest camera or phone in advance and send them to me. We can go over the behavior/body language of your cat/s together. This is particularly important for cat to cat, or cat to human aggression cases.

    Pictures or videos are very helpful to describe the home situation or distribution of resources. I would appreciate if you can lead me through your house during a virtual walk through. Information about resources like food, water, litter boxes and resting places is important. If you prefer to provide a drawing of the set-up of your resources that is also fine with me.
