September 24, 2020 - The importance of enrichment for cats (Online)
Thinking inside the box - the importance of enrichment and choice for cats is a live webinar presented by the PPGA (Pet Professional Guild of Australia) and hosted by Andrea Carne, behaviour consultant at Cattitude.
Unlike dogs, cats are often seen as independent, aloof animals who only tolerate humans, can look after themselves and don't need much looking after. Recent scientific studies turns that all on its head. Cats love their humans more than you think and how they live their lives with us dramatically affects their overall health and wellbeing.
Andrea will show you how even small changes to a cat's environment and offering them some choice and control in that environment can have a big impact
When: Thursday 24th September 2020, from 7:00pm-8:00pm
Cost: Free for PPGA Members; $20.00 for Public

Dr Kate Lindsey is a veterinarian who has had a lifelong fascination with animals and their behaviour. After feeling confused and uncomfortable with the high rates of euthanasia due to behavioural reasons seen in veterinary practice, Kate pursued further studies in this field and founded Kalmpets in Perth, WA.
Dr Sarah Howard discusses with Dr Kate Lindsay emerging research in the field of behavioural medicine and the crossover between canine and human mental illnesses. We then jump into the specifics of how she uses diet and supplements to aid in the management of her cases.
