Feline Behaviour & Psychology Training

Understand Feline Behaviour, Explore Feline Psychology and Learn How Cats Communicate, Think and Respond

Cats communicate constantly, but understanding what their behaviour actually means can be challenging. From purring and kneading to scratching, hiding, hunting and displaying anxiety, seemingly simple actions can reveal important information about a cat’s instincts, emotional state and environment.

The Feline Behaviour & Psychology Training course provides a structured introduction to Feline Behaviour and Feline Psychology, helping you understand why cats behave as they do and how their origins continue to influence modern domestic life.

You will explore domestication, natural feline instincts, feline body language, cat communication, psychological needs, stress, common behaviours and responsible cat care. The course also examines feeding, obesity, safety, reproduction, multi-cat households and behaviour management.

Whether you are a cat owner, pet care professional or simply fascinated by the feline mind, this course can help you interpret cats more confidently and support better feline wellbeing.

What Is Feline Behaviour & Psychology Training?

Feline Behaviour & Psychology Training explores the biological, behavioural and psychological factors that influence how cats interact with people, other cats and their surroundings.

Modern domestic cats retain many behaviours inherited from their ancestors. Hunting, scratching, territorial behaviour, hiding, scent marking and particular drinking or toileting habits can therefore make much more sense when viewed through the origins of the species.

The course begins by examining domestication and feline origins before progressing into cat behaviour, communication and body language. You will then explore cat psychology, emotional responses and different feline needs before looking at the reasons behind familiar behaviours such as hissing, purring, kneading and rubbing against objects.

Later topics cover cat care, including feeding, managing weight, keeping cats safe, living in multi-cat households and understanding common behavioural challenges.
