Our online courses

We have a single clear vision at Cats Protection: A society where every cat has their best possible life because they are protected, cared for and understood by everyone.

Our online courses have been designed to give you an appreciation of your cat’s needs, how this relates to their behaviour and how to provide the best environment for them. The House Plan ensures your home is cat-friendly, while our new Understanding Cats’ Needs course is ideal for those curious to know more about cat ancestry.

Understanding Cats' Needs

This course introduces you to three cats, using their experiences to help you understand the needs of your own cat, whether they are in a home or living in a rescue environment. Find out more about the origins of the African wildcat and how their behaviour is similar to that of your pet cat, or find out more about the needs of cats living in shelter care.
