Episode Synopsis

Episode 20 – Life in a Multi-Cat Household – Theresia and Shiro's Journey   Multi-cat households can range from 2 cats to over 20 cats and, whilst in many, the cats co-exist in relative harmony, in others, there can be a whole host of behavioural and mental health challenges.   In this episode, we take a closer look at a 6-cat household, we meet the individual cat personalities within the household, and we learn about the challenges that existed for both the cats as well as their lovely caregiver, Theresia.   Many cats, especially if they are not related or if they had different experiences in their socialization periods, find it difficult to live with one another, and this can result in aggression, fear, and stress for everyone involved.   Dr Katrin chats to the lovely Theresia about her multi-cat home, the individual challenges the cats were experiencing when they first met, and how she helped to restore harmony back to the home for both the cats and Theresia.   If you liked this episode of the show, The Pet Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Pet Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!
