Cats & Dogs Couples Counselling

After years locked in conflict, many a cat and dog have turned to professional help for their fraught relationships. Can session time mend burnt bridges and resurrect broken trust built up between these adversaries? Joint counselling appears a wise decision back in the comfort of home - but inside the therapist’s office, it may prove a catastrophe!Follow along as age-old enemies attempt reconciling their differences under one roof. Laugh, cry and hope alongside as cats and dogs navigate group therapy, revisiting past hurts, unlearning behaviours… even rediscovering how to play. Yet haunting these couches, a lingering question remains: can instincts rooted in eons ever transform enough for harmony – however fleeting – to prevail?

Having been a third culture kid, growing up in India, Arabia and Africa, the author was able to keep all manner of pets from pigeons to peacocks and billy goats to baboons.

At nineteen, he lived on a farm with only animals for a whole year and no human contact. Surrounded by so many, he completely forgot how to talk ‘human’ but amazingly started to understand ‘animal’?! Who would have known - cows love techno. Blind dogs trust no one. Roosters are primadonnas. Hens are so gullible. Field mice hold arranged, all night parties. Bulls are big, soft romantics - loving whistled melodies and sunsets. All of this led him to a deep appreciation of the relationships between animals.
