Helping Cats and Their People Live Their Best Lives Together

Who are we?

We are a unique, one and only, cat behaviour consulting and training business located in Regina, Saskatchewan, and thanks to the virtual world we have been able to help kitties and their families from all around North America! Purrsuasion is proudly owned by Tori Schlosser, an experienced cat trainer, Métis woman, and dedicated cat advocate

What do we do?

Our goal is to help cat guardians, like yourself, solve your cat’s concerning behaviours while also helping you understand and appreciate your kitty’s quirks. We strive to rebuild and strengthen your relationship with your cat so you can both live your best lives together.

Our primary focus is our behaviour consultations, where we and cat guardians work as a team to help transform their cat's undesirable behaviours into positive and fulfilling ones. Additionally, we offer clicker training sessions for cats, aiming to boost confidence, enhance bonding, and add everyday fun to both your and your kitty's lives.

How do we do it?

We begin by understanding the 'why' behind your cat's behaviors, examining their core needs and instincts to assess what may be missing or might benefit from a healthy change. Then, we introduce fear-free, positive-reinforcement techniques, combined with environmental enrichment and clicker training, to meet your cat's needs and restore harmony in your home.

Tori has been amazing! We went from having 2 cats that hissed at each other constantly to having a pair of besties that play all the time and sleep together on the cozy blanket. It took a few months but Tori's feedback assured us we were making progress. Tori gave us such good advice and was detailed in her instructions for how to introduce them that we couldn't fail. She is happy to answer questions along the way and is full of encouragement. As a bonus, the clicker training that was a big part of the introduction process has given us a great way to stimulate the cats intellect and impress our friends with the tricks they can do! Definitely recommend Tori's services! Just hire her; you won't regret it. 😻

We approached Tori when our older cat was attacking our younger cat after we moved. This was causing our youngest to have feline idiopathic cystitis flare ups almost weekly. Since working with Tori and utilizing the skills she taught us (clicker training, touch, redirection, enrichment) our younger cat has grown in her confidence. We are now able to redirect our older cat when he is getting amped up and wanting to attack our younger cat. Tori has provided us with so many tools and skills to keep our babies happy and co-existing. We couldn’t be more thankful for her help. Highly recommend working with Tori, she is so kind and knowledgeable.

Tori is the best!! I tried for 4 months to get my two pairs of kitties together with no success. After her consultation, I have been able to use the techniques she taught me to bring them together! Since working with Tori, we've been able to slowly help them build their confidence as well as their relationships with each other. She teaches you how to use clicker training and enrichment activities to bring out your cats confidence and personality, as well as how to interpret their behavior more accurately. Most importantly, she approaches everything with a problem-solving attitude and empathy, encouraging cat parents through every moment. She's an expert, and if you put your trust in her, you and your cats will 100 percent benefit and enjoy your lives together even more.

Tori was such a delight to consult with. She is very knowledgeable and gave us so many helpful hints and information that have proven very valuable in training our kitten, Luna. One thing in particular that I will mention is her tips on how to get Luna to let me brush her teeth. I had received tips from the vet on how to get her to cooperate but nothing worked. Then Tori came to the rescue and her suggestions worked perfectly. Thanks so much Tori for all your valuable help. I'm so glad we found you.

Our cat, Rudy, has a scenting problem. He constantly pees everywhere in our house, and every time we thought we had it cleaned, he would do it again. Tori came in and gave us very helpful advice and plenty of options that we would’ve never even thought of trying. She was friendly, honest, and always checked in to see how things were going afterwards. Thanks, Tori! 😊👍🏼
