Cat Guardian Companion

Visiting the vet can be overwhelming, especially for new cat owners or those unable to accompany their cat. It's challenging to know which tests are necessary and if you're running unnecessary tests.

Not all vets can handle every condition, so knowing when to seek a second opinion is crucial.

 

I've seen cases of unnecessary tests and misdiagnosis, highlighting the need for informed decisions. That's why I've launched 'Cat Guardian,' a service that accompanies your cat to the vet, ensuring the right questions are asked and you're fully informed before making important decisions for your beloved pet.

 

Find out more on why this service was launched via my Blog Post here.

  • Is an adoption contract legally binding?
    A contract is a legally binding agreement between parties, setting out their rights and obligations. Responsible fosterers/rehomers use legally binding adoption contracts to ensure the well-being of the cat. By signing, adopters commit to providing proper care, keeping the cat indoors, and not abandoning them. Failure to adhere to the contract can result in legal consequences under the Animals and Birds (Amendment) Act 2014, including imprisonment or fines.
  • Why must I cat proof my home if I wish to adopt a cat?
    There is a high number of cats who fall from Height. Cats are unpredictable and can easily fall from heights when chasing something. Despite the myth, cats only have one life, and it's our responsibility to keep them safe. They have a strong flight response, can fit through small spaces, and need to be protected from high places. Cat-proofing is essential to prevent accidents and ensure your cat's safety and well-being. Cats have a fight or flight response - they run as fast as lightning if they are afraid, panicky or feel threatened. They can fit in small spaces, and no matter how fat the cat is, it can fit through an opening, so long their head can fit through. You can refer to this video to see how amazing their skills are at trying to fit through tight spaces:- https://youtu.be/qlJTLSncEV4
  • I want to adopt my community cat. Can I just take him or her home?
    As community cat caregivers, we form a strong, loving bond with these cats. Before removing a community cat, please contact the main feeder/caregiver to discuss your intentions and seek further information on its behavior, temperament and health status. Ensure your home is fully cat proofed for the cat to prevent accidents, and that you and your family are financially, mentally and emotionally able to commit to the animal's lifetime. Be kind and allow visitation or communication with the caregiver.
  • What are the DOs and DON'Ts as a Cat Owner?
    A cat is not to be mistaken to be a low-maintenance version of a dog. They require love and attention. Cats may scratch, bite, and be active at odd hours. Are you prepared for this? Avoid common first-time cat owner mistakes by reading our Facebook page article or alternatively, have a look at our Blog which would probably answer most of your queries!

Please note that our service does not override your vet's advice. In certain cases, we may recommend seeking a second opinion. You will always be asked to consult your vet before any suggestions are acted upon. Our service is not meant to undermine any vet's authority but to help cat owners make informed decisions. We do not receive any referral fees or kickbacks for clinic recommendations; they are based solely on experience and suitability for your cat's care.
