Meet Zara - The Heart Behind CatEps

My Story: From Cat Kid to Cat Expert

Growing up in a house full of rescue cats, I never imagined my childhood passion would evolve into a mission to revolutionize cat care education. I'm Zara Winters, founder of CatEps, certified feline behaviorist, and devoted cat mom to Luna and Oliver.

The Journey That Shaped CatEps

My path to creating CatEps wasn't a straight line – it was more like a cat's playful chase after a laser pointer! After earning my degree in Veterinary Technology from Cornell University, I spent five transformative years working alongside renowned veterinarians and animal behaviorists. During this time, I noticed a recurring theme: while we had incredible scientific knowledge about cat care, many cat parents struggled to apply this information in their daily lives.

This realization sparked the idea for CatEps. I wanted to create a space where scientific expertise meets practical, real-world application – where complex behavioral concepts transform into actionable advice that any cat parent can understand and implement.

More Than Just Another Cat Website

CatEps isn't just another pet website – it's a culmination of:

Meet My Feline Co-Workers

Every great team needs quality control specialists, and mine happen to have four paws each:

Luna - My sassy Siamese rescue who keeps me humble. She's the chief editor of all content, ensuring everything meets her exacting standards. Her favorite hobby? Knocking my coffee mug just far enough away that I have to stretch to reach it.

Oliver - My gentle giant Maine Coon who thinks he's my personal assistant. He specializes in keyboard walks during video consultations and provides excellent moral support during late-night writing sessions. His superpower is knowing exactly when I need a purr break.
