We Don’t Just Zoom: We Connect

Twice a month, we come together for live Zoom chats, where you get the chance to:

Frequently Asked Questions

That’s okay! There are adventurers of all experience levels here in Trailblazers – even some who haven’t even started harness and leash training yet. The group activities are designed in such a way that there is something for everyone, no matter where you are in your journey.

That’s okay! The main goal of everything we do in Trailblazers is simply to enrich our cats’ lives as best as we can. For some of us, that means taking our cats outside. For some of us, that means creating lots of indoor adventures. Either way, there is a place for you here.

Every challenge and activity in Trailblazers can be adapted for indoor OR outdoor fun, so regardless of which type of adventures and enrichment activities you’re looking for, you’ll find them here!

Members are welcome and encouraged to ask questions anytime and to share about any cat-related struggles they are having. The community is always there to offer encouragement, insights, and advice based on their own experiences. We have group discussions on various topics, and there is even a whole section of the group dedicated to asking and looking for recommendations on topics such as training, gear, etc.

The monthly activities will give you new ideas of things to try with your cat and offer a bit of extra motivation to reach your goals. They are also usually designed to give your cat a new form of enrichment and to help them progress with a specific area of their training.

The group is run and organized by a certified cat trainer who specializes in traveling and adventuring with cats, so you’ll have direct access to be able to get help along your journey whenever you need it.

And of course, everyone is there to cheer you on every step of the way.

The activity/challenge theme changes every month. Some examples of past activities include:

  • Scavenger Hunts
  • Clicker Training
  • Cooperative Care Skills
  • Cat Agility
  • Acclimating to Water
  • Box Fort Building
  • Prepping for Vet Visits

No matter the theme, there are activities that take place both outdoors and indoors, so there is something for everyone to participate with, even if they’re not quite ready for or maybe not even interested in outdoor adventures.

Absolutely! There are a wide range of experience levels represented, not to mention the various schedules everyone has in their own lives, so it is understood that everyone will participate in their own time. There are no expectations or requirements for participation or rate of progress.

Though the monthly activity/challenge theme may change each month, you are more than welcome to take however long you want to work on your chosen activities or even go back to revisit past month’s activities. The resources and activities are there for you whenever and however you’d like to participate.

No worries! You are able to participate in any of the other past activities at any time, so if one month doesn’t appeal to you, there are plenty of other things you can do instead. The Zoom chats are fun to attend even if you aren’t participating in this month’s activities, and the community is ALWAYS there for support, encouragement, and discussion.

The Zoom chats typically take place on the first Monday of the month at 8pm ET and on the third Friday of the month at 3pm ET. The times alternate to accommodate the many different time zones represented in the group.

Zoom chats are not recorded.
