Can We Fix a Naughty Cat? (HDYTT)

August 23, 2020 by Andy Roark DVM MS

This week on the Cone… Dr. Andy Roark and feline behavior expert Ingrid Johnson discuss what to do with a naughty boy who bullies, tears open food bags and says offensive things (well, we don’t know what he says, but we bet they are NSFW). Can we “fix” cats like this??? Let’s get into it!

She filmed for the website WebMD and has created a series of educational How-To videos of her own, viewable on Fundamentally Feline’s website. She is Co-Director of Paw Project-Georgia, working towards ending the cruel practice of de-clawing cats.

Cat Fancy magazine’s 2008 “Home Issue” showcased her feline friendly accommodations and the aesthetically pleasing ways you can provide for your cats innate basic needs while still having a home the humans can enjoy.

Ingrid shares her home with husband Jake, seven rescue cats, and Sebastian, a rescued Great Pyrenees Dog.
