Does your cat panic at nail trims? Hide at the sight of the carrier? Bite when you try to give medication?
Cooperative care training teaches your cat to accept — and even participate willingly in — the handling and procedures that keep them healthy. No restraint. No stress. Just a cat who trusts the process.
What we can help with
- Nail trims
- Carrier training
- Oral medications (liquids and pills)
- Ear and eye drops
- Asthma inhalers
- Injections
- Harness and equipment desensitization
- General handling — petting, grooming, exam prep
Don’t see your specific need? Ask — there’s a good chance we can build a plan for it.
Step 1: Cooperative Care Evaluation — $150
Every training plan starts here. In this 30–60 minute virtual session, we’ll review a video of your current attempts at the care behavior, assess your cat’s reactions, and build a personalized training plan with clear goals.
What’s included:
- Review of video footage you submit before the session.
- Assessment of your cat’s current comfort level and reactions.
- A tailored training plan with step-by-step goals.
- Full walkthrough of techniques and the reasoning behind them.
Session length varies (30–60 min) based on the number of cats, how reactive your cat is, and how many behaviors you want to address.
Step 2: Follow-Up Training Packages
Once your evaluation is complete, you move into a follow-up package. Sessions are one hour each and conducted virtually — accessible from anywhere. In-person sessions may be available for local clients on a case-by-case basis.
These sessions are focused exclusively on cooperative care and husbandry behaviors. Aggression, litter box concerns, or other behavior issues require a separate consultation with Laura.
