Description

Cats can be mysterious and can owners are eager to understand their behavior and learn how to strengthen the bond between cats and humans. In the revised 2nd edition of The Cat Behavior Answer Book (77,000 copies in print), pet expert Arden Moore answers the many questions cat owners have, from the practical aspects of training, feeding, and caring to the puzzling aspects of behavior and communication. Do cats dream? What's the purpose of a cat's whiskers? How do I catproof my house? Why does my elderly cat howl at night? How can I train my cats not to jump upon the kitchen counter? Can I keep my cat from climbing the curtains? What's the best way to train a kitten to use the litter box? How can I eliminate the smell of cat urine? What's the best way to trim a cat's nails? Is it okay for my cat to eat grass? Arden Moore provides insightful answers to all these questions and many more, along with reassuring guidance on addressing the problems that can get in the way of living happily with a cat. The 2nd edition has been completely updated to reflect the most recent research and recommendations and redesigned in a larger, highly browsable format.

If you are a first time cat owner, this book is a must read. It gives you all the possible information that you need to know about looking after your cat. It also had some interesting facts about cats in history. I always thought cats were very intelligent animals, and this book definitely proves that. This book helped me understand my own cat better and will be following a lot of the advice. I am so glad I got the opportunity to read it.

I have 4 cats so obviously I needed to read this book. I find myself constantly wondering what my cats are thinking and why they behave the way that they do. This book gave me a lot of info and knowledge on what exactly is going through my cats' heads. This is concise and informative and delivers info in a clear way. Thank you to NetGalley and publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I really liked this book. I would definitely return to this book when I have questions about my cat’s behavior. It starts with the basics and then goes on to cover so many topics. It is thorough and easy to read. I love all of the pictures of adorable cats. I think this is a solid resource for cat owners and lovers. It would appeal to a wide age range as well. This was a great book.
