Information

Although adult females carry their young by the scruff ,this does not mean that it is appropriate for an adult cat.

A trip to see us is usually stressful, and a cat’s coping mechanism in a stressful situation is to avoid the source.

The act of scruffing entirely removes the sense of control for a cat, and he or she does not have the option to avoid the situation, scruffing therefore escalates the feeling of stress, leading to distress, anxiety and fear, in turn leading to aggressive behaviour , so the act of scruffing can actually serve to provoke or escalate the behaviour we are trying to avoid.

All the staff at Robin Lewis are trained to handle cats in the best way possible, and are always kept up to date with the latest methods via our cat advocate.
