The Hidden Truth
About Cats

Cats are tiny beings that live in our homes and seem to love us but are often mysterious. There are more cats living in American homes than any other pet, and yet they are often maligned and misunderstood. Cats are not nearly as independent and uncaring as they have been accused of being. Treat your cat as a friend (not as a dog) and you'll have a loyal, loving companion!

  • A written summary of our recommendations

How We Do It

What is Fear Free Training?

Fear Free teaches techniques designed to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress during trips to the vet, veterinary visits, home from the vet and post-visit care. However, many of these same techniques can be used to foster relaxed, less stressed cats at home, leading to fewer behavioral issues and happier kitties! Our trainer is certified in these techniques and would be happy to share them with you!

Testimonial

EVERYTHING I NEED AND MORE

 

If you are looking for help with your cat or would like to learn how to be a better parent to your cat I highly recommend My Feline Friend Services.

 

Beth Chapman is amazing and so professional.  I learned so much about both my cat - Nico - and me.  I was seeking help on several subjects including how to play better with Nico and how to put a cat harness on him.

 

She was in tune with Nico immediately and while playing with him, observed what type of play he prefers, what type of toys he enjoys and showed me the skill of having successful play time for Nico.

 

The session flew by and was so fun. There is some preparation before the session which turned out to be extremely helpful and easy. I had better questions for Beth and she could focus the session to meet Nico’s needs.

 

The help does not end there. She is available for additional questions if needed (I did) and has scheduled our follow up meeting 1 month after the session for review.  I cannot recommend her enough and for the amazing service she provided.
