Introduction to Cat Behaviour Certificate
Why you should study with us
Introduction to Cat Behaviour Course
While cats can be a mysterious group, there is a lot you can learn about them by observing and analysing their behaviour. This information can help you train your cats to behave well, while also giving you strategies you can use in the event they misbehave. Understanding what is normal for each stage of a cat’s life and what you can expect in the future are key aspects of responsible pet ownership, as well as tenants of proper feline care.
This course introduces you to cat behaviour, giving you a solid foundation you can build from. We begin by talking about what type of behaviour you can expect from cats throughout their lives, breaking this topic down by stage. Next, we discuss ways you can manage your cat’s behaviour, including training tips and steps you can take to help improve your cat’s temperament. A shortlist of things you should never do when trying to manage a cat’s behaviour is also included.
You Will Learn
- The specific type of behaviour that is considered normal for cats at each age
- The possible causes of bad behaviour in cats
- Ways you can prevent unwanted actions from occurring
- Tips you can use in the event the cat engages in those behaviours
- Information about training cats
Benefits of Taking This Course
- If you are a pet owner, learn more about what kind of behaviour your cat should be demonstrating

- Gain a more thorough understanding of how factors like age and pre-existing health can impact a cat’s demeanour

Helpful tips learned during the course and many fun facts. I will be completing 6 more courses after this one. Such a great learning experience. The knowledge in each package is phenomenal!

I started this course not too long ago but I am already learning so much! The course content is extremely interesting and informative!
I get excited thinking about what is going to be in each module! I would recommend this course to everybody with a passion for makeup without hesitation! I love the convenience of being able to do this course wherever I am.
Also, the fact that there is no time limit for the course is a plus, this means I can take my time and take notes as I go, without feeling rushed to complete each module fast.

Excellent course that not only gives me the elements to know about my interest but helps me to refresh my previous knowledge about it and about all that is related to. I feel prepared to continue studying at the end of it, and I now work with animals as a volunteer.
I am happy to recommend to every person that wants to continue studying or would simply like to know more about pets. I don’t have much time to go to a class or can’t because of work.
Marvellous experience, and the help of the staff through email were great!
Silvia Esther Basik
This is a fantastic course! I really enjoyed it. The most useful module is about working with autistic children. There are lots of tips how to deal with autistic behaviour!
This course really helps me in my work as a support for the 4-old autistic boy in a nursery. Every day I use an imaginative role play to develop his social skills. It really works! This course also increases my knowledge about autism and other related conditions.
Thanks to all modules I could increase my English terminology about autism as well (I am Polish). I can recommend this course to all people who are interested in autism! Thank you very much for this course.

Absolutely amazing course.. I had so much fun learning with New Skills Academy. This course was so informative, set out really well and I learned so much. It was great that with two young children under 3, I still managed to learn and pass my course that I’m so happy about.
Also fantastic that for a small fee I am having my certificate sent out to me which is a great option for me. All that’s left for me to do now is practice practice and practice. New Skills Academy have given me the confidence to start my venture as a Face Painter. Thank you so much. Amy xx

This short course was actually very informative and interesting, and learned far more than what you can read on the internet. The modules are an excellent way to learn, as you can complete each module in your own time.
I feel as though I’ve learned a lot from this course and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in starting a career in alternative medicine or as a starter in your own business. This certificate can lead onto other courses in this field.
The customer service was excellent, quick and easy to apply online and even better, you can pay by PayPal.

Yet another well laid out course. This is my 3rd course so far with New Skills Academy.
More than likely will be back for another one soon. This course was enjoyable to do, and I learnt a lot and passed first try. My certificate will be up on the wall soon.
Rob Coops
I found this course incredibly useful, as it provided me with practical knowledge which I can implement in my role as a Support Worker. The videos were clear and concise, and the downloadable worksheets reinforced what I had learned as I was able to put pen to paper. Overall, a fantastic course for a great price! I am looking forward to taking on my next one.
Teleisha Harley
The course was clearly set out with helpful end of week tests which built my knowledge. Being dyslexic I found the course was set out in an easy to understand way. I was able to pass the test on my first attempt. The downloaded pdf are a useful resource that you can keep forever. Looking forward to the next course
Ross Dunsten
Excellent course, well explained and easy to understand. The course can be done at my own pace and is available on various devices. The layout of the course was excellent and the notes options is very good. The content is perfect and well structured, making it easy to understand and follow. I will definitely be taking more courses in the future.
Luis Costa
Very interesting and helpful course. I ve learned a lot of interesting things about make up and the tutorials were very helpful and easy to understand. I really reccomend this course for everyone who is passionate about make up and wish to develop their skills and make a career from their hobby.
Nicoleta Lucaci
This is a great course for any level of knowledge. Very easy to navigate, great practical tasks and explanations are very clear. You can revise any module with no problem. The test wasn’t too hard if you completed every module. It may be handy to make some notes before you start. Overall I'm very happy with my choice. Thank you New skills for my New skills :)
Julia Bobkova
Fantastic course! Well-presented and challenging with frequent assessments. I feel a serious sense of accomplishment having not studied for over 30 years! Videos that accompany each module are carefully thought out and informative. Am so impressed with this course, have now signed up for 3 other courses and recommending New Skills Academy to everyone!
Marva Hudson
I am a doctor. This course is well organized, covering all areas of CBT. The videos and practical tips are very helpful. All the modules are arranged with good explanations and examples. Also each module consists of quick test and assignment which enables you to gain knowledge. Finally I would like to thank the New Skills Academy team.
