 Mary Daniels of The Chicago Tribune dubbed
Carole "the founding mother of feline psychotherapy." Others have called her
'the Kitty Freud", "the Feline Freud", and other similar sobriquets.
Carole's major media appearances recently
include:
National Public Radio's
"The
Leonard Lopate Show"
Entertainment TV's "The
Gastineau Girls"
Animal Planet's "Most Extreme"
series
PBS's "Nature: Extraordinary Cats"
and "Animals Are People Too,"
Japanese television's
"Pet Encyclopedia."
Carole's work and advice are
covered regularly in countless magazines and newspapers, including: The
New York Times, The New York Daily News, The New Yorker, National
Geographic, Biography Magazine, L.A. Life, Marie Claire, The Chicago
Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The London Daily Mail, The National
Post, and The Montreal Gazette.
Obviously, people in the
media feel that Carole Wilbourn makes an important difference in the lives of cats and
their guardians.
Over her three decades-long
career, Carole has devised the "Wilbourn Ways" of curing and
preventing cats' behavior problems.
Carole makes house calls coast
to coast, and consults by telephone internationally. She works with many
veterinarians to devise programs for cats with psychological and
emotionally-based disorders. She is a staff consultant at
Westside Veterinary Center in
New York City.
Carole's monthly column
"Cats on the Couch" ran for sixteen years in Cat Fancy Magazine. Now,
"Cats o n the Couch"
appears on Carole's page on the In Defense of Animals web site. IDA is an
excellent national non-profit organization that works "to protect the
rights, welfare, and environments of animals." Other areas of their web site
are excellent resources for all animal welfare information

first hospital for cats only, in Manhattan, in 1973.
Carole lives in Greenwich Village, NY with her
cat, Orion.
