Understanding Feline Behavior: Training Your Cat (2nd Edition, EPUB)
Cats are often described as untrainable, and this book argues otherwise by first explaining how a cat thinks. It covers the psychology of cats, how to read your own cat, and how to build a safe and stimulating home. Training chapters take on positive reinforcement, basic commands, litter box habits and more advanced tricks, followed by common problem behaviors. Two chapters are less usual in a cat book: one on training senior cats and one on how health and behavior affect each other.
Second edition, revised and expanded.
