Behavior Consultations                                                     
                                                                                    
Dr.Flatley has a strong interest in behavior medicine. Her approach to addressing behavior problems is systematic and thorough. Positive reinforcement and behavior modifications are tools she has used successfully. Behavior modifying drugs, although useful under appropriate circumstances, are used cautiously and only as a last resort.

How can I set up a behavior consultation?

First Step: Call us at (920) 886-2287.
We will ask for a brief description of the problems you are having with your cat.

Second Step: We will have you fill out thorough behavior questionare. This is available at the clinic or we can mail one to you. If you are not a client we would ask that you fax any recent medical records for that cat to our clinic to be evaluated before the appointment. Fax # (920) 886-2291.

Third Step: Once the history and questionare have been evaluated by Dr.Flatley, you will be contacted to set up a behavior consultation appointment. Please set aside an hour of your time for this appointment.
