Hi, I’m Shelby – also known as The Cat Whisperer Singapore®, a Cat Behavioural Consultant with 15 years of experience working with cats!

​​

What began with rescuing my first cat, Lucky, in 2007, has since evolved into a career dedicated to feline behaviour, welfare, and care.

​

I have been a community cat caregiver, rescuer, rehomer & animal welfare advocate since 2010, when I left my banking job to start Lucky’s Pet Haven, an online pet store & grooming service.

In 2010, I left my banking career to launch Lucky’s Pet Haven, an online pet store and grooming service.

By 2013, my services evolved into cat sitting, rescue, and rehoming after I boarded my beloved community cat Tigerella (RIP 2017) in a cattery to save her from being culled. That experience solidified my mission: to care for every cat like they were my own.

​

Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience in cat behaviour, handling, medication, and grooming.

​

In 2021, recognising a growing need among my clients, I formally expanded into feline behavioural consultancy – offering personalised assessments and science-based behaviour modification plans rooted in psychology, observation, and compassion.

​

As a firm believer in education and advocacy, I served on the Board of the Cat Welfare Society (2017–2022), and Purely Meow (2023-2025). I’ve also been a Grassroots Volunteer since 2012 and am an ACLP certified trainer.

​

In 2024, I completed my first e-book, Feline Fundamentals: A First-Time Owner’s Guide to Cat Care – created to empower new cat owners through knowledge and empathy.
