What is a Cat Whisperer?
Similar to a horse or dog whisperer, a Cat Whisperer is a person
who relates particularly well with cats. A Cat Whisperer has
unusual luck and success with cats. Often people bring cats or a
single cat will just "show up" at their home. This cat will
adopt the whisperer.
For myself, I've had Persians and black cats mostly, show up
and move in. Sometimes, the cat's people moved and abandoned the
cat. Other times, the cat just decided it liked it better at my
house.
Some say that a Cat Whisperer is a cat therapist, but in truth,
most Cat Whisperers are good cat behaviorist. Most Cat
Whisperers have never had any formal training, and come by it
naturally. They understand a cat's way of thinking and work with
its existing behaviors to achieve the desired results.
Some cats that have been abused will only respond to a Cat
Whisperer. Other people may try to help the cat and only see a
scared cat with a long memory of abuse and hurt. These cats
often tragically end up in kill shelters. It is tragic because
the cats have already endured so much. Many of these poor cats
were once loved and coddled pets. They were abandoned,
mistreated by children or cruel adults, terrorized by dogs and
possibly even tortured.
When a cat is this badly damaged emotionally and physically, it
takes great patience and care to bring the poor cat back to some
semblance of normalcy around people.
