How to Raise a Happy Cat focuses on the happiness to be found in the
person/pet relationship and includes dozens of ideas for activities and
hacks you can build into daily life with your pet, from spontaneous play
and activities to making them the perfect sleep spot.
We know how important happiness is for ourselves but when it comes to
pets, making sure they're happy - as opposed to obedient, say - is
often underrated. Yet there's plenty of fresh science that shows
that a happy, engaged pet is easy to live with and creates happiness
in its owners, too.
How to Raise a Happy Cat shows what you can learn from your pet's
behaviour and body language, offer a mass of practical ways to raise
your pet's happiness levels, and show you how to connect with them
in the way they'll love best.
Building on recent scientific developments into animal behavioural
science, this book's methods aim to increase inter-species
understanding and encouraging the behaviour you do want, while
discouraging the behaviour you don't.
Divided into 6 chapters, each of which contains plenty of
easy-to-follow activities which owners can carry out themselves,
this book will become an invaluable resource for building and
strengthening the bond between human and cat.
Sections include:
- How you can get to know your cat better;
- How to develop happiness in different areas, from exercising to
playing;
- A guide to different stages in a cat's life and at how to tailor
activities to a kitten or to an ageing cat
Perfect for cat owners who want to get to know their feline friends as
individuals, this indispensible book offers a new angle that gives
owners lots of customized ideas for having fun with their pet, as
well as explaining behaviours that they may have previously found
baffling.
