Ever wondered why your cat knocks things off counters, races around at 3 AM, or suddenly bites during petting sessions? Cat Behavior: Decoded reveals the hidden language of cats and transforms mysterious behaviors into clear communication.
Written by experienced animal behaviorist Shelby Brooks, this comprehensive guide takes you on a journey from foundational concepts to advanced behavioral insights. You'll discover how cats perceive the world through their unique senses, why territorial instincts drive so many behaviors, and how to recognize the subtle signals cats use to express their needs and emotions.
Inside this book, you'll learn to interpret tail positions, ear movements, vocalizations, and body postures with confidence. You'll understand why cats scratch furniture, what triggers nighttime activity, and how to decode the difference between playful roughhousing and genuine aggression. The book explores grooming behaviors, sleep patterns, hunting instincts, and the complex social dynamics that exist in multi-cat households.
