GENERAL BEHAVIOUR CONSULTING
There's a reason behind the behaviour. Let's find it.
When a cat starts showing aggression, fearfulness, compulsive habits, or tension with another cat in the home, it is rarely random. Behaviour is communication. Understanding what your cat is trying to tell you starts with asking the right questions.
A General Behaviour Consultation gives you a structured starting point: a thorough assessment of your cat's history, environment, temperament, and the specific behaviours you are concerned about, with a written report to take away.

WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
General Behaviour Consultation | $175
You will leave this consultation with more than a list of things to try. You will have a clear understanding of what is contributing to the problem, a written resource plan specific to your cat and household, and a realistic path forward.
A thorough assessment of what is driving the behaviour, based on your cat’s history, environment, health factors, and household dynamics
A written summary of your session and resource plan, delivered within 48 hours and yours to refer back to at any time
A consultant who will tell you plainly what they are seeing — including if your situation calls for something more than a single session
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
Get Started Your Way
Submit an inquiry if you'd like to talk through your cat's situation before committing, or book your session directly if you're ready to go. Either way, you're in the right place.
Complete your Intake Form
Once your appointment is booked, you will receive a detailed intake form to complete ahead of time. This keeps your session focused on assessment rather than background information.
Your 90 Minute Consultation
Meet one-on-one with Heather, in-person or virtually. Work through the findings together, ask questions, and leave with a clear picture of what is going on and what to do next.
Receive your Written Summary
Within 48 hours, your written summary and resource plan will be in your inbox.
IS THIS THE RIGHT SERVICE?
A General Behaviour Consultation is well-suited to a wide range of feline behaviour concerns. Before booking, here is a guide to whether this service is the right starting point for your situation.
This service if a good fit if:
-
Your cat is showing aggression — toward people, other cats, or in response to specific triggers
-
Your cat is displaying fear-based behaviour such as hiding, hypervigilance, or stress signals
-
You are managing a multi-cat household challenge, including a difficult introduction or ongoing conflict
-
Your cat is showing compulsive or repetitive behaviours that concern you
-
You have noticed a behavioural change and are not sure where to begin
-
You want a professional assessment and a clear written direction rather than generic advice
This service is not a good fit when:
-
Your primary concern is litter box avoidance or house-soiling — the Litter Box Reset Program is designed specifically for those cases and includes additional follow-up support
-
You are looking for quick tips rather than a thorough assessment
-
A veterinary exam has not yet ruled out health-related causes — if you suspect an underlying medical issue, that is always the right first step
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER?
For cases that take more time, or for owners who want continued access to structured support as they work through the process, the Post-Consultation Support Program is available to clients who have completed a General Behaviour Consultation.
Your consultant will discuss during your appointment whether ongoing support makes sense for your situation.
