What to expect
Finish your consultation with a clear plan forward
Your consultation begins with a detailed conversation about your cat’s history, health, environment, routines and behaviour. This gives us the context needed to understand your cat as an individual and identify the factors that may be influencing their responses.
We then explore your cat’s needs and home setup, including resources, litter trays, scratching areas, enrichment, household interactions and daily routines. Where appropriate, your trainer will observe your cat in the comfort of their familiar environment.
You will receive practical recommendations tailored to your cat and household. These may include environmental changes, enrichment activities, training exercises and step-by-step strategies that can be introduced at a pace that feels comfortable for your cat.

With more than 24 years of experience in animal training and behaviour, Dogaholics provides thoughtful guidance designed for real homes and real routines. You receive achievable next steps that support your cat’s wellbeing and encourage lasting progress.
Frequently asked questions
What can you help with during a private cat consultation?
We can provide guidance for litter tray habits, urine marking, scratching, vocalising, interactions between cats, responses towards people, fearful or shy behaviour, kitten education, household introductions and environmental enrichment.
What happens during a cat behaviour consultation?
We discuss your cat’s history, health, environment, routines and behaviour before looking at the factors that may be influencing their responses. You will then receive practical recommendations tailored to your cat and household.
What should I know before booking?
It is helpful to gather information about your cat’s health, history, daily routine and home environment. Changes in behaviour can sometimes be connected to health, so a veterinary assessment may be recommended before or after behaviour support.
What happens after I book?
You will receive confirmation of your consultation and any information needed to prepare. You may also be asked to complete a questionnaire or send videos so the Dogaholics team can learn more about your cat before the appointment.
What is your cancellation and rescheduling policy?
Current cancellation and rescheduling conditions are provided when you book and included in your appointment confirmation. Please contact the Dogaholics team as early as possible when an appointment needs to be changed.
