Frequently Asked Questions

Is video as good as an in-person consultation?

As long as you can walk us around your home using a laptop, tablet, or phone, we can see what's important - your cat's environment! Even with in-person consultations, we often rarely see the behavior in question. The main drawback is that with a video meeting we don't get to meet your kitty so we miss out on petting and playing, which is a bummer for us!

Further, whether we meet via video or in-person, you can always send us videos and photos of your cat doing the behavior you're concerned about, or have us review training/desensitization sessions as well. Video technology has allowed us to help cats all over the world!

How does a video consult work?

Having a video consultation is super easy. We use Zoom for these meetings; upon scheduling, you'll receive a confirmation email that contains your meeting link. We typically don't record these sessions (aside from when you show us around your home, with your permission, for our own reference in case we need to give something a second look later), and we will never share any video recorded with anyone else.

Do you have a guarantee policy?

Because there are so many factors that are out of our control when it comes to improving your cat's behavior, we cannot offer a guarantee. We make recommendations and you implement the plan; we can't control how much of the plan you execute, or how well you do the things we recommend. We also can't control your cat's response or your environment. That being said, if you have questions about how to do something or need help with overcoming an obstacle, that's what we're here for - just reach out for help when you need it.
