When everything else you’ve tried hasn’t worked, learn how easily your cat’s behavior can be changed — every time.

IAABC associate Certified in cat behavior consulting, Mieshelle Nagelschneider, enjoys the most difficult cat behavior consulting cases.

I have been studying cats for over three decades — thousands of cats, in thousands of different environments. I have helped more cats and more cat owners — nationwide, in person or on the phone — than any cat behaviorist working today. I truly believe The Cat behavior Clinic will be your final stop for solutions with behavior techniques found only here from my latest research and study of animal behavior at Harvard University .

After cat owners have tried one cat behaviorist after another (and they’re aren’t many out there to begin with), after they’ve talked to vets whose specialty isn’t actually feline behavior, even after the cat owners have found themselves in the parking lot of their local humane society – they call me.  And time after time, I have come through for them, just as I will for you. Please read our Rave Reviews! (since 1999).  I’m proud to say that I have been consulting with cat owner’s for almost 13 years.  The litter box consultation alone I have conducted 7,000 times from Greece to Manhattan.

Mieshelle Nagelschneider, ACCBC, is an Associate member of the IAABC, and a member of both the Animal Behavior Society and the Association of Animal Behavior Professionals. Her most recent study of animal behavior was at Harvard University, with a focus on animal cognition. The information and help you receive from Mieshelle is up-to-date on the latest trends of animal psychology — and unlike anything you’ve read on the internet, popular books, or advice received from your vet.  Random House Publishing (and other major publishers)  covering over 80 countries commissioned Mieshelle to write a book on her breakthrough methods.

“I can’t believe how simple it was,” pet owners tell me once we’ve corrected their cat’s problem. “Everyone else was making it seem so complicated and hopeless.”

Some things are complicated. But not everything needs to be. Here’s another comment I hear very often: “Now I finally understand my cat’s psychology.” And because I make a point of educating my human clients, they are better able to handle future problems on their own or at least not unknowingly create a new one.

Who else wants a great relationship with their cat?

With a detailed case history and behavior summary of each cat, the appropriate behavior modification and retraining techniques can be implemented into your cat’s daily life. It’s important to note that not only will the treatment plan include your cat with the misbehavior, but other pets and people directly involved in the environment. Many times, owners and other pets in the household could be contributing to, reinforcing, or triggering the undesired behavior. For the treatment plan to be most effective, it’s important that we take the time to look at every aspect of your cat’s life.

Finding out what is triggering your cat’s misbehavior is the first goal. The problem will often subside merely after removing the trigger. However, it is also common for a habit to have formed and the negative behavior to continue even after the trigger is removed. If the cause for the misbehavior is not found, we will treat with behavior modification techniques and new, healthy habits to be developed through retraining.

Coaching Cat Owners for Results That Last

By the time cat owners consult with me, they have tried everything and are very discouraged. Often the relationship between owner and cat is tense and has deteriorated to the degree where the environment is not conducive to the cat’s happiness. This alone is enough to cause the existing behavior problem to worsen, or yet another one to surface. That’s why, for 4 – 6 weeks after a consultation, I work with the client to ensure that the behavior program being used is the correct one. Cat behavior is not one-size-fits-all.  Also, without understanding the cat psyche, owners may be making choices that are creating a stressful environment which can lead to many of the most common feline behavior issues.

Are you ready for a permanent solution? Your cat is wondering what you’re waiting for!
