The PAWS Approach

Vet referrals

Referral from your Vet

A thoughtful, practical next step when your veterinary team has noticed your cat may need a little more support.

Cat behaviour consultation

A plan that looks at the whole picture.

Thanks for being referred to The PAWS Approach by your veterinary team. We work with cats experiencing behaviour concerns — from litter box issues to anxiety and beyond — and build a practical plan to address them alongside your vet.

What to expect

Once you book, we'll liaise directly with your vet to receive any relevant history ahead of your appointment — you won't need to organise this yourself.

Pick a time using the button below, then tell me your cat's vet when you fill in the intake questionnaire. Don't worry if you can't remember every detail — the questionnaire covers the basics, and I'll follow up with your vet for the rest.

Before you book

A few useful things to know.

  • The initial consult session is approx. 90 minutes and takes place in person for Canberra and Queanbeyan clients, or online for everyone else.
  • I'll send payment details once your appointment is confirmed and your intake questionnaire is complete.

Got questions before booking? Use the contact form and I'll get back to you — usually within 48 hours.

Important: Booking a vet referral consult means you're consenting to share relevant clinical history between your vet and The PAWS Approach.
