So I’m not going to walk you through my whole life, but let’s pick it up again after I finished University and I got my very own cat – Pickle.

And my goodness did she rock my world. She was 4 years old, found as a stray by a rescue centre, had stripes above her eyes that made her look perpetually grumpy and was my everything. 

Sadly she was also incredibly poorly with diabetes, gingivitis, pancreatitis, arthritis, dandruff, and more. During our 13 years together I was incredibly driven to do the best for her that I could which led me to train in a range of holistic and complementary therapies and modalities.

These included a cat care, welfare and behaviour diploma, feline zoopharmacognosy (aka self-selection) diploma, animal healing diploma, Reiki levels 1, 2 and masters, a chakra and aura healing diploma and mindfulness programme. 

I’m not a traditional cat behaviourist. I focus my services, support and guidance on energy and emotions.

Being a holistic cat therapist means I have a more holistic approach to supporting you with your cat.   

In my opinion all behaviour has an emotional cause. That’s what I deal with, the emotions behind your cats behaviour. I only work with anxious cats and anxious guardians.
