Katwaardig is a cat behaviour therapy practice run by Mary Quarles van Ufford. It provides consultations for unwanted or problem behaviour in cats, including litter problems, spraying, scratching furniture, aggression towards cats or people, fear of people, cats or dogs, fireworks anxiety, wool sucking and pica. The practice also offers Bach flower remedies for animals as a supplement to behaviour therapy, and gives lectures on cat behaviour with printed hand-outs.

Customers are owners and prospective owners of cats with behavioural problems. Income comes from consultations and remedies; a Bach consultation for animals costs 60 EUR including the first bottle, and additional bottles cost 10 EUR. The practice is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK) and is accredited as a cat behaviour therapist by the SPPD platform for professional animal behaviour experts. It is affiliated with Tinley, a specialist in animal behaviour.

The founder completed the Feline Behaviour Therapy training at MartinGausAcademie and received the "kattengedragstherapeut" diploma in April 2012. She is a volunteer with the stray cat project of the OverGelder branch of the Dierenbescherming animal welfare organisation and is a member of its aftercare working group for shelter animals.
