What does cat anxiety look like?

Even though cats can’t talk, their behaviors tell us when there’s an issue

Hiding

If your cat spends most of the time hidden under a bed or out of sight from the other people, dogs, cats, Roombas, etc. — it may be a sign of anxiety. At Dutch, we make sure to treat anxiety like the medical problem it is, to provide your cat lasting relief.

Fear of new places/people

If your cat isn’t a fan of going to new places or meeting strangers, fear or anxiety could be the underlying cause of their timid behavior. Our Dutch-affiliated vets will review their list of triggers and fears to develop a plan that will get to the root of your cat’s problems and create lasting change.

Fear of being alone

Sure, it’s cute when your cat wants to be by your side all day long, but do you know how to recognize signs of their clinginess veering into separation anxiety territory? Our panel of experts do. There are only 80 vet behaviorists in the entire country and at Dutch, we work with two of them to develop medication protocols to calm your cat’s anxious brain.

Meowing or yowling

Excessive meowing and/or yelling is a cry for help and a major sign of cat anxiety, and shouldn’t be ignored. At Dutch, we know that medication alone isn’t the answer. Once medications help calm the anxious brain, our pets are more receptive to training. We’ll give you the tools to implement easy-to-learn training exercises, plus environmental enrichment techniques, to create lasting change in your cat’s day-to-day life.

Destructive behavior

Can’t leave the house because your cat will tear up anything in their path? Destructive behavior is a common sign of a distressed, anxious cat. Our online consultation will help us understand your cat’s triggers and symptoms so we can begin to develop their customized anxiety treatment plan. Still have questions? Our experts will get back to you with answers within 24 hours, every time.

Urinating outside of the litter box

Did you find your shoes filled with something other than insoles? Was there an unwelcome present left in the middle of your bed? Anxiety or stress can be one cause of your cat eliminating outside of the litter box and our team of vets can help you relieve their stress so they relieve themselves where they should.

Frequently asked questions

What is a visit with Dutch like?

When booking a video call with a vet, you'll be asked a few questions about your pet’s health issue. Depending on the issue, you may also be asked to fill out a longer questionnaire about their symptoms and share photographs of them so our veterinarians can better understand what’s going on. You’ll then pick an appointment time that works best for you.

During your video call, one of our licensed veterinarians will talk to you about the symptoms your pet is experiencing, ask you questions, review your pet’s medical history if you’ve provided it, and answer any questions you have. The vet will ask to see your pet and their environment. And they may ask you to perform some simple checks on them if needed.

After your video call, the vet will send you a message with a custom treatment plan to help your pet feel better, including a link to buy any recommended prescription or over-the-counter medications. Place your order and we’ll ship it free.

Who is Dutch for?

Dutch is for dog and cat owners wanting a more cost effective and timely way to handle common pet issues. We eliminate the unnecessary vet visit as well as the stress related to getting your pet to the vet. The Dutch experience is designed to connect you with a vet via video call for general advice and recommended OTC product offerings. In certain states, vets may prescribe medication and therapeutics and our partner pharmacy will ship it right to your door.

What's included in a Dutch membership?

All Dutch members have unlimited access to U.S.-licensed veterinarians over video chat and messaging for up to 5 pets. In many states, our vets can also prescribe medication for pets. Our vets will create a specialized treatment plan for your pet that can include prescription and/or over-the-counter medications, as well as behavioral modification, diet, and/or enrichment advice. A Dutch membership also includes free standard shipping and free, unlimited follow-ups with our vets through messaging and video calls.
