书籍介绍

This is a fully revised and updated edition of the bestselling feline behaviour bible. Thanks to her regular appearances in the media and at veterinary conferences and humane organizations, most cat owners already recognize Pam Johnson-Bennett as the authority on all things feline. Over the past ten years, the award-winning author has continued to refine her work and techniques. From basic health care to more serious behavioural issues, from training cats to use a scratching post to avoiding litter box problems this newly revised edition of "Think Like a Cat" covers all of a cat owner's most pressing concerns - and solidifies its position as the topic leader for years to come.

精彩摘录
  • "If you have a cat who goes outdoors, about a week before the move, stop letting her outside. The week before the move is usually crunch time for people: their packing becomes more intense, they're sleep deprived, and the stress level rockets off the scale. Your cat, ever the observant one, will sens"
  • "Once again, if cats ruled the world (and I know many people think they already do), you'd never go anywhere, not to work, not on vacation, and certainly not to the veterinarian. A move to a new house? Don't even mention it."
  • "The sounds a baby makes can be disconcerting to a cat (and to parents as well). You can find crying-baby sound effects on the Internet or you can record the crying sounds of a friend's baby and play it at a low volume while you conduct play sessions with your cat."
  • "A cat who has only been exposed to a female owner may need time to adjust to the heavier sounds of a man's footsteps as well as his deeper voice or broader movements. It will help if you can ask your spouse to try to walk and talk a bit softer for the first few days."
  • "When you go in to feed or visit the new cat, try to do it on the sly so your resident cat doesn't sit outside the door feeling upset. Visit with the newcomer when your other cat is eating, sleeping, or in another room."
  • "What kind of a cat would benefit from a feline companion? If your cat is lonely, spending long hours by herself due to your work schedule, another cat might be a wonderful friend. …… When shouldn't you consider a second cat? Never try to introduce a new cat when your current cat is in the middle of "
  • "There are some cats who are so territorial that they could never accept any competition."
  • "When you touch that extremely painful area of his body, he may lash out at you. If a cat who normally enjoys petting and handling suddenly reacts violently, run—don't walk—to the veterinarian because there's a good chance he may have an abscess or other injury."

很实用。
很重要的养猫读物！
一年多前我以为我们能养猫，我看了很多关于猫的纪录片和书…结果终于等到breeder说有刚生的小猫了，家属和猫待了十几分钟就开始严重过敏…再见了我的养猫梦。言归正传，这本书挺好的，学到了很多一辈子没法用的理论知识😂
写的非常系统全面，希望每个人都能对他们的猫多点耐心。
