Kitten Kindergarten featuring Juliette Nash

  • Summary

  • Join us in this episode as Tabitha interviews Juliette Nash, the Community Animal Training Manager at the San Diego Humane Society, to explore the crucial topic of kitten socialization. Learn about the significance of the socialization period, the effects of positive and negative social experiences, and how programs like Kitten Kindergarten teach kittens life skills and set kittens and caregivers up for lifelong success. Juliette shares her expertise on this essential early training and education program and provides practical advice on implementing Kitten Kindergarten in veterinary practices, foster programs, and shelters.

    Juliette Nash is the Community Animal Training Manager at San Diego Humane Society. She has been observing animal behavior and applying what she learned to her training since childhood and was thrilled when she discovered an entire community of trainers who subscribed to the same ethos. She has worked with a wide range of domestic pets- including pet birds and rabbits- as well as wildlife with a special focus on behavior modification around fear and socialization in owls and other raptors. After pursuing a master's degree in social behavior and vocal learning in killer whales, she returned to her first and deepest love - hands-on behavior work. Juliette is a Certified Professional Animal Trainer - Knowledge Assessed (CPAT- KA), has taken Dr. Susan Friedmans' Living and Learning with Animals class twice, and attends behavior & training-related conferences or workshops regularly. She developed the cat training programs at the San Diego Humane Society, some of which were the first of their kind. She currently lives with her two cats, Amethyst and Sapphire, who spend easily as much time training her as she does them.
