Welcome to Kitty Psych 101. This section is designed to assist cat owners with behavior problems that, if bad enough, can lead to a cat or kitten being given up to a shelter. Sometimes this can be avoided with a little bit of insight into kitty’s psyche. 

The fact sheets have been gleaned from literature as well as the personal experience of multiple cat guardians. The FAQ’s are real questions and answers that have been posed to the shelter volunteers.  

We hope you will find what you need to help deal with the situation that you and your kitty find yourselves in. If your situation is not addressed by anything that you find here, please email us and we will do our best to assist you.

Disclaimer: If your problem is urgent, please be aware that questions are answered as soon as possible, but there are occasions where responses may be delayed by as much as one week. This section is not meant to be a substitute for proper veterinary care.
