Calling all Australian cat owners!

Do you really understand what your cat is trying to tell you?

We’re running a research project titled “Interpretation Accuracy of Feline Visual Behavioural Cues in Australian Cat Guardians” – and we’d love your help!

If you’re 18+, live in Australia, and own or care for a cat, you’re invited to take part in our survey. Your responses will help us understand how people interpret cat behaviour and improve future education for cat owners.

✨ Behind every veterinary professional is a person.

Sometimes circumstances outside our control can make it difficult to prioritise professional memberships and career development. That's why the VNCA Membership Accessibility Scheme was created.

Proudly supported by Buddy Pet Insurance, this initiative helps eligible veterinary nurses, technologists and students maintain access to the support, education, wellbeing resources and professional community that VNCA membership provides.

If cost or personal circumstances are preventing you from joining or renewing your membership, support may be available.
