about US
A happy cat makes a happy home.
We're Cathryn and Gene Jirlds and we believe that the animals we share our lives with are deserving of dignity and respect. They share with us the same rights for access to necessary resources and the kind of lives that lead to contentment, good health, and happiness.
Cats don't get the care they need for good health
When cats don't get the care and resources they need for normal behavior, the resulting stress causes them to act out in ways that make them and us unhappy. And behavior disorders can lead to medical problems.
​
We've cared for cats for several years and for much of that time we relied on conventional wisdom, or advice from family, friends, and Google. We discovered that most of that advice was confusing and conflicting, or just plain wrong.
​
With the help of our veterinarian and the websites listed on our Learning Resources page, we learned how to reverse unwanted behaviors and how to prevent them in the first place.
​
Why we're here to help others
​
We created Happy Cats Wellness to share what we've learned with you and to help all cats live happier healthier lives. Please join us and tell your friends so that together we can give them the lives we know they deserve.
Happy Cats Cat Champions do what's right, not what's convenient.
You are your cat's primary health care advocate.
