About Fetchers Behavior Modification

Understanding your cats primitive needs is the key to having a harmonious mutually beneficial relationship.

Fetchers Feline Behavior modification service is offered by Cat Behaviorist: Emmy Syversen at Fetchers in Fargo, ND. At Fetchers, our goal is to create a specific training plan that aligns with your cat’s primitive needs. We will use your goals and your cat’s personality and needs to create a training plan that will lead to combined success and harmony in the home. We follow training methods that include positive reinforcement, counter-conditioning, and desensitization. Additionally, we don't provide any corrective methods that involve pain or fear when addressing an issue. Not only does this method not work but it would cause the situation to escalate in severity. Our guidance is a gentle and enjoyable process for you and your cat to learn how to better fit into your shared world together. If it's anything cat related, we can help!

We have the knowledge and experience to manage, resolve, and prevent many types of cat behavior issues such as:

  • Aggression / Biting towards people or animals
  • Destructive behaviors
  • New pet introductions
  • Litter box issues
  • Excessive vocalization or scratching
  • Behaviors rooted from fear, anxiety, and stress
  • Inter-cat relationships
  • Kitten socialization… and more!

When I brought home my second cat, Gully, I was nervous to introduce him to my current cat, Woody. I wasn’t sure where to start so I reached out to Emmy for help. She helped me walk through the process step by step to ensure that they were introduced correctly. I wanted to start off on the right foot and she helped me and my cats succeed!

I have had my cat for 4 years, ever since she was a kitten. She suddenly started to go outside of the litter box. I was at a loss and didn’t want to get rid of her. Emmy helped me figure out why she wasn’t using her litter box and how to get her back to using it again! She saved my relationship with my cat!
