Cat Behavior Consultation Services
Is your cat acting in ways that leave you confused or frustrated?
Do you need the help of an expert to troubleshoot a specific issue?
How can you determine if your cat's behavior is "normal" or a concern that needs addressing?
**PLEASE NOTE**
In addition to Dr. Marci, we now have a second behavior consultant, LeeAnna Buis, to help you with all your behavior needs! Dr. Marci is still booked out several weeks, but LeeAnna is currently accepting clients right away (you can choose your consultant and see available consult spots when you hit the "purchase" button). We're updating our website soon to tell you more about LeeAnna!

Frequently Asked Questions
Any time more than one cat is involved or if there's more than one issue of concern, things get more complicated and require more time and patience to resolve. If you need help determining which consult would be appropriate for your situation, please contact our team. If you just can't decide, we highly recommend booking a standard consult to see if you click with Dr. Marci - you can always upgrade to a full consultation later.
Yes, please choose the 30 day consultation service. We can help you integrate your new cat or kitten into your household successfully. If you are at the very beginning of your cat adoption journey, and just need some guidance on where to start, and what to consider, we can help you with the standard consultation.
Yes! We work with clients all over the world via Zoom video conferencing. Please reach out to our team if you have any concerns.
Cats are animals, and we have a limited amount of control over their behavior. Many undesirable cat behaviors take time and patience to correct - some are resolved more easily and quickly than others. There are a number of factors that can affect this, including your cat, the amount of time you can dedicate to resolving the issue, and many other aspects of your situation. But don't worry about the 30-day limit; the full-service behavior package can be extended in 30-day increments if you need more time.
What Others Are Saying
What really impressed us was how Marci related her suggestions to our specific needs and our housing situation, and gave us alternative suggestions that led to a successful conclusion. And, we highly recommend her services.
— David & Carol Peterson
I am enjoying being a cat parent again! If you are at your wits ends with your cat and are thinking of contacting Dr. Marci, DO IT! It was hands down the best thing I’ve spent money on in years; or maybe ever.
— Joanna and Sahara
We had hired a behaviorist in the past with minimal results. Marci exceeded our expectations, which is what we desperately needed. If you are in a situation with your beloved felines that have you fearing re-homing them or putting them outside or worse, Marci and your sweet babies are soooo worth the investment.
