You’re not alone

Everyday life with a cat who attacks can quickly become stressful, even painful, and many people end up feeling lost when facing this behaviour.

    “our cats are completely relaxed, they play together”

    We contacted Fanny when my partner moved in. He also has a cat (a 4-year-old male). Our two furballs did not get along at all. Mine, a 1.5-year-old female, would constantly attack him and confine him to one room.

    “Now, everything seems so simple”

    For a long time, everything in the house was organised so that Babou (my beloved cat) and Croquette 😻 (Marjolaine’s cat) would never meet again!!!

    “She is professional, attentive, and committed”

    Hello, I contacted Fanny because my young one-year-old cat could not stop bothering my senior cat of 16, who didn’t stand a chance against this ball of muscle and energy.

    “this young woman is passionate about her work”

    Hello, I was away from home for 5 months after a glider accident, so I had to leave my two kittens, just a few months old, with foster families.

    “we went from 6 pees a day to 3 per week”

    Fanny is very gentle and very professional ☺️. I contacted Fanny for a marking problem that one of my cats had for over 6 years. He had been doing it since the very beginning.

    “Twix is calm when I leave, no more need for the crate”

    I recommend!! I was lost with my dog Twix, who couldn’t stand it at all when I left the house… He would destroy everything, and I had no other solution than to put him in a crate.

What lies behind their aggression

Why does it happen? What your cat is expressing

Aggression in cats always has a cause: fear, frustration, pain, misunderstanding… or simply a breakdown in communication between human and feline! Before anything else, a veterinary check-up is essential to rule out pain, discomfort, or illness.

Every human-cat duo is unique

There’s no one-size-fits-all recipe for feline aggression. What matters is understanding your cat’s history, your daily life, and the dynamics of your relationship.

Take the example of Marion and Simba: Marion was regularly attacked by Simba, to the point of ending up in the emergency room several times. During our very first session, we identified what was unsettling Simba and adjusted the way Marion interacted with him. The result? A calmer relationship, and a Simba who now even comes looking for contact gently, without attacking. Understanding your cat can sometimes completely transform the relationship.

Why consult a behaviourist?

  • To identify the root cause of your cat’s aggression
  • To learn to read your cat’s signals (before they bare their teeth!)
  • To rebuild trust and closeness, moving toward a calm relationship without fear or tension

My approach

Listening, analysis and caring, personalised support. I help you decode your cat’s needs and adjust your daily interactions. No magic wand, but real, practical tools.

How does the support work?
