Cats are the world's most popular domestic pet, as well as being
wild animals. This comprehensive book on feline behaviour explores
both the familiar domesticated animal and wild relatives such as
the leopard, tiger and lynx to examine the Felidae family as a
whole, allowing for fascinating comparisons between wild and
domestic species and explanations of behaviour in pet cats with
evolutionary origins. Fraser's work helps increase readers'
understanding of cat behaviour - why they behave as they do, for
what purpose and why. The focus is on identifying normal behaviour
from the cat's perspective, with a welfare theme running
throughout; as exhibitions of normal behaviour provide evidence of
good welfare, and abnormal behaviour can be an indicator of poor
welfare. Providing a veterinary perspective - by including coverage
of feline physiology, life stages and reproduction - as well as an
ethological one, this is an important read for veterinarians,
shelter workers, animal behaviourists and students of veterinary
medicine and animal welfare, while also being of interest to pet
owners.
