Description

Cats spend nearly half of their waking lives engaged in some form of grooming behavior.

It is easy to dismiss this as cats simply being clean creatures, but there are bigger reasons for grooming habits than just aesthetics.

Understanding more about grooming and its connection to a cat’s health, as well as the greater health issues cats may face, is a huge part of being able to provide good feline care.

This course gives you an overview of grooming and feline health, with topics spread out across two modules.

The first discusses grooming and grooming habits in detail.

We talk about the reasons why cats display this behavior and what changes to grooming habits may mean.

The second module discusses feline health, giving you an introduction to the common ailments cats can suffer from, along with symptoms and what can be done to help.

The course finishes with a discussion of veterinary care, stressing the importance of regular check-ups.


What You Will Learn?

The two modules are overflowing with valuable information that you can use in your pet grooming career, this includes:

  • The specific reasons why cats groom themselves and others
  • The physical and emotional benefits your cat receives from grooming
  • How you can help cats with underdeveloped grooming habits
  • Information about diseases and other health concerns you may see when working with cats
  • Information about the importance of vaccines for all cats, not just outdoor ones

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
