Amanda tong, 26 Cat behaviourist

AVAILABLE FOR: One-on-one sessions on cat behaviour

Because animals can’t talk, we need to listen better,” says Amanda Tong, “The focus of my practice is enabling clients to understand their cats better.” Tong studied psychology in college, but transitioned to being a cat behaviourist when she realised she had a greater interest in animal behaviour. She excitedly shares that she is also trained to work with horses, birds and rabbits. Having grown up with a dozen cats, Tong realised early on that cats have low tolerance levels for being treated badly. “The challenge in my profession lies in ensuring the pet is at ease. Most of my clients, who have indoor cats, approach me when their pets have anxiety about visiting the groomer or vet, or aggression issues,” she says, reflecting on her eight years working with cats and their owners. Tong takes a solution-oriented approach in the plans she draws up for clients, including follow-ups.

RECOMMENDED BY: Ramya Balasubramanian “Amanda is not just knowledgeable when it comes to feline behaviour, but she also knows how to help and reassure a stressed pet parent. She has the right tips, detailed research papers and does regular check-ins via video call to make sure everything is perfect.”
