I am Rita Reimers, Certified Cat Behaviorist and founder of The Cat Analyst, with over 30 years of experience helping cats and their humans live together in harmony. I specialize exclusively in feline behavior, offering personalized virtual consultations to cat guardians throughout the United States.

Whether you are dealing with aggression between cats, litter box avoidance, inappropriate urination, anxiety, destructive behavior, excessive vocalization, or difficulties introducing a new cat, I can help you understand what is driving the behavior and develop a practical plan to address it.

My approach focuses on understanding each cat as an individual, identifying the underlying causes of behavior problems, and helping families create lasting solutions. You do not have to navigate challenging cat behavior alone. Let's fix this together!
