behavioural advice for cats at gladstone vet

Behavioural problems can arise from behavioural causes, medical causes, or a combination of both. Our veterinarians will investigate these issues by obtaining a full history and conducting a thorough examination, which may include blood or urine tests to rule out underlying medical conditions. Along with this comprehensive approach, we offer expert behavioural advice to help address the root causes of your pet’s issues. Behavioural problems are often influenced by multiple factors, including your pet’s environment and learning, and our tailored advice can guide you in managing and improving your pet’s behaviour effectively.

Genetics can also predispose your pet to some behaviours, however the expression of those behaviours will depend on your pet’s early socialisation and training.

Addressing behavioural issues early can prevent them from becoming more serious problems. Working closely with our veterinarians, you can develop a tailored approach that includes environmental adjustments, training, and, if needed, medical treatment. Consistent support and understanding from both you and our team will help your pet achieve a happier, well-adjusted state. If you’re noticing any behavioural changes in your pet, don’t hesitate to reach out for a thorough evaluation and personalised care plan.

Understanding and Managing Behavioural Changes

Behavioral problems require careful, professional intervention—quick fixes can often make things worse. Instead of simply addressing symptoms, it’s crucial to identify and treat the root cause. For issues like barking, aggression, or separation anxiety, a home visit might be necessary, and sometimes medication may be needed alongside training. For the best outcome, seek advice from a qualified veterinarian or animal behaviour specialist. Contact us to schedule an appointment today.
