We supervise appropriate play styles and discuss behaviours. We provide education on socialisation, mental stimulation, desexing, jumping, barking, interaction with children (and other household cats and dogs), crate training, avoiding separation anxiety – Each family is provided a +50 page booklet of notes to take home along with weekly homework sheets to keep you on track.
