Cats aren’t being difficult—they’re being independent. In this solo episode, Certified Feline Behavior Specialist Molly DeVoss explores what autonomy means for your cat and why respecting their need for control is the secret to a better relationship.

From common mistakes that erode trust—like forced handling or overtraining—to practical strategies like choice-based training, consent-based petting, and environment shaping, Molly shares how to stop the control battles and start collaborating with your cat.

Learn why your cat resists control, how to recognize subtle signs of stress, and what happens when you empower instead of overpower. If you want more affection, cooperation, and trust from your feline friend—this episode is for you.
