Humane Feline Handling 101

Discover how to humanely handle cats for transfers and veterinary procedures, including using proper holding techniques, towels and other devices. Tips on handling fractious and fearful cats are also covered, as well as using calming scents. You can listen to this webinar at your convenience, anytime 24/7. 

Don’t Miss Part I! Feline Communication teaches you what cats are saying with their eyes, ears, whiskers and tails, their weight shifts and body postures—and how to use your own body language to show cats that you are a friend, not a foe

By the end of this webinar, you can develop an understanding about:

• The proper way to pick up cats and place them in crates or transfer cages
• Useful holding techniques like the taco and football holds
• Tools to use with more defensive or fearful cats (and what tools should never be used)
• Scents that can help calm cats

This webinar is useful for new and seasoned shelter workers, volunteers, TNR workers, veterinarians, veterinary technicians, animal control officers, foster care providers or anyone who handles cats regularly.
