MEET THE HOLISTIC CAT SPECIALIST

Helping proactive cat parents transform their cats health and behaviour using holistic, natural solutions.

MY MISSION:

To empower you to take control of your cats’ health and behaviour by unlocking the power of natural remedies and positive training, so you and your cats can live happy, long, extraordinary lives together.

I’m Paola Zanibelli Davies

_{CEO and Founder Of The Holistic Cat Specialist}

As a Doctor in Psychology and an expert in holistic cat care, I’m passionate about helping proactive cat parents create harmony and health through natural remedies and positive training techniques.

With 10+ years of experience, I combine my deep understanding of behaviour with my love for feline well-being to offer a unique approach that blends science and hands-on, holistic cat care.

My journey began with my own cats, who inspired me to explore natural solutions to complement and wildly expand what traditional medicine has to offer. One challenge at a time, I have learned that cats can cooperate with their human guardians if we ask “nicely”, and I am so grateful for being able to witness firsthand the transformative impact of hands-on, holistic cat care.

Today, I work closely with cat guardians to provide personalized guidance and support that helps cats and their human parents thrive, together.

WHAT MAKES MY APPROACH UNIQUE?

Holistic Philosophy

I believe in supporting the whole cat rather than just addressing symptoms. My approach combines natural remedies, behavioural understanding, and environmental adjustments to create a harmonious, balanced life for both you and your kitty.

Cooperation Through Compromise

As a Doctor in Psychology, I bring a deep understanding of both caregiver feelings and feline behaviour to my work. Using a balance of empathy and healthy boundaries, I help foster trust, communication, and harmony between you and your cats, even at medication-time, creating a happier home for everyone.

Personalised Solutions

Every cat is unique, which is why I tailor my recommendations to your cat’s specific needs, lifestyle, and environment. Whether it’s natural remedies or training strategies, my goal is to provide practical solutions that truly work for both you and your cat.

Natural Remedies & Wellness

I specialise in incorporating safe, evidence-based natural remedies into your cats’ care routine. These remedies are designed to support their physical and emotional well-being, helping them thrive in a natural and holistic way.

Veterinary Collaboration

I understand the importance of comprehensive care, which is why I collaborate with veterinarians when needed. Even if I do not prescribe drugs, I have a good understanding of medications, anatomy and physiology, and biological processes: an integrative approach ensures that your cat's health is supported from every angle, combining the best of both holistic and traditional practices.

MY JOURNEY TO HANDS-ON, HOLISTIC CAT CARE

My love for cats began in childhood, but it was only when I became a cat parent myself that I truly understood the challenges and joys cats bring into our lives.

My journey into holistic care started with my own cats, beautiful souls who taught me the importance of understanding their needs on a deeper level.

Through their health and behaviour struggles, I discovered the transformative power of natural remedies and positive training and created my hands-on approach.

Losing one of my beloved cats early on ignited a passion within me to explore alternative approaches to feline wellness and to take a much more active, leading role in cat care.

When my young cat ended up in the vet hospital, I felt completely helpless. was told “there is nothing we can do”, but looking back now.. there was A LOT I could have done. I just didn’t know yet.

Determined to make a difference, I began studying natural remedies specifically applicable to cats, and I used my feline behaviour background to create my hands-on approach to cat care.

I also worked with rescue cats, helping to rehabilitate and giving them a second chance at a loving home.

Fast forward about 5 years, my soul cat started to have various health issues in his senior years, some of them very serious, and I fought with him to overcome every challenge we faced.

As a result, we gained several more years together, during which he had a great quality of life, 99% of the time. My darling kitty was like a little person, he was my biggest teacher, and he loved making memories together, memories I would not have if it weren’t for the hands-on, holistic care I put in place.

Nothing could take away the pain of losing him when he crossed over, but my proactive involvement in his wellness gave me so much peace of mind, because I knew that I had done everything in my power to help him live a long, fulfilling, healthy life.

Today, I use what I’ve learned to support cat parents like you, helping them navigate the challenges of feline health and behaviour while fostering a stronger bond with their kitties with my gentle but effective hands-on, holistic approach.

MEET THE TEAM

SUSANNA
_{The Secretary}

She can only work part-time, as she is still finishing Princess School. Very delicate. Such a darling. Loves her daddy the most. Only wears pink. Some of her meows are silent..

PEGGY
_{The Diversity Manager}

Resilient, sweet, and great with boundaries. Not afraid to get down and dirty (literally), she ensures everyone is included and treated equally. A little angel.

HONEY
_{The Cat-ering Manager}

Performer, entertainer, always busy, too clever for his own good. Wheel walker. He high-fives, kisses human noses 1, 2 or 3 times and obviously sits on command. He will do anything for food.

MILK
_{(aka Puff Puff)}
_{The Product Development Manager}

Burrower, kneader, licker. Can't purr, but he puffs. He adores his brother and his mum. He sniffs out everything, including everyone's bottom and good opportunities.

PARDINO
_{The Team Leader}

My soul-kitty earned his wings on July 6th, 2024, he was almost 19 years old. He had a strong character, he was very wise, understanding, loyal, and extremely patient. He took in everything I said, shared his points of view extensively and he swore by the power of routine. His physical presence is very missed, but somehow I still feel his spirit around me ❤
