SUMMARY:Online Training - 3/25/26 - Reducing Surrenders with Feline Behavior Support Certification Workshop - Community Cats Central (small fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Led by feline behaviorist Dr. Rachel Geller\, this workshop focuses on how a strong understanding of cat behavior can prevent unnecessary surrenders and keep cats in their homes. Designed for surrender prevention specialists\, shelter staff\, and volunteers\, the session explores compassionate\, practical approaches that address both human concerns and feline needs—helping families and cats stay together. \nThrough real-life case examples with proven outcomes\, you’ll learn how behavior-informed conversations can shift perspectives\, reduce stress\, and create lasting solutions for some of the most common challenges facing cat guardians. \nWhat You’ll Learn\nPrinciples of Effective Surrender Prevention\nLearn the core strategies behind successful surrender prevention and why they work. This section focuses on guiding conversations with empathy\, understanding guardian limitations\, and identifying realistic solutions that support both the cat and the caregiver. \nAddressing Common Behavior Challenges\nExplore practical approaches to the three most frequent reasons cats are surrendered: litter box issues\, destructive scratching\, and inter-cat aggression. Dr. Geller shares field-tested techniques and examples that help redirect problem behaviors while strengthening the human–animal bond. \nValuable Resources & Certification\nTake advantage of the interactive format and live Q&A\, extensive handouts\, and real-life case studies. Attendees will receive a digital certificate after passing a brief quiz and access to a dedicated Facebook group for ongoing networking with fellow feline advocates. Plus the live course recording will be available for you to review for one year. \n#ThanksToMaddie\, we have several scholarships available for those helping cats in the United States. Scholarships are limited so don’t miss your chance to attend at no cost! \nThis course/webinar/series/conference has been approved for Continuing Educational Units by the National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA). National certificate holders can submit for credit consistent with the NACA CEU policy located https://nacatraining.org/continuing-education-recertification/ \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://communitycatscentral.com/events/reducing-surrenders-with-feline-behavior-support-march-2026/
