From Hisses To Purrs

Working with a cat who hides or hisses when you approach? Struggling to give medication without making everyone stressed? Unsure how to help a fearful kitten become comfortable with people?

Join Tabitha Kucera of Chirrups and Chatter (https://chirrupsandchatter.com), a Veterinary Technician Specialist in Behavior and Certified Cat Behavior Consultant, for From Hiss to Home: Building Confidence in Shelter, Foster, and Rescue.

Through lecture, videos, real-world case studies, hands-on  live demonstrations of Tabitha working with cats, you’ll learn to:

🐾 Understand what a cat’s body language is telling you during daily care and recognize when fear, stress, or pain may be making things harder

🐾 Use training and socialization techniques to help cats feel more comfortable with people, handling, and everyday routines

🐾 Make moving cats, handling, and giving medication less stressful for cats and the people caring for them

🐾 Create realistic behavior plans that staff, volunteers, and fosters can use consistently and adapt as each cat’s needs change

Fosters, volunteers, shelter teams, and animal advocates will leave with practical tools to help cats feel safe, build confidence, and thrive in their care and future homes.
