Information for vets

I am a feline-only veterinary surgeon, with a special interest in cat behaviour, having obtained my DipAs(Companion Animal Behavior Counselling) from Southampton University in 2005. I am currently a candidate member with the Fellowship of Animal Behaviour Clinicians, and am working towards my full accreditation as a Certified Clinical Animal Behaviourist. As a veterinary surgeon, I understand the interplay between physical and behavioural health, and how a decrease in either can adversely affect animal welfare. As a practicing veterinary surgeon, I also appreciate how it can be difficult to find the time required in general practice to comprehensively work up a behaviour case, but also how managing a cat’s behavioural health inevitably involves teamwork between a behaviourist and the cat’s primary care vets. This is why I only work on veterinary referrals, and why you will always be kept updated with any recommendations that are made.

Whilst I offer at-home consultations for clients within the Oxfordshire area, I am equally happy to provide online consultations for clients outside of this area, as all cases will be supported by a detailed behavioural questionnaire and house plan, and video/photographic material where needed.
