The number-one cause of death of cats and dogs under the age of three is preventable, behavior-related problems. Arden Moore is on a mission to change this deplorable statistic. With the publication of “The Cat Behavior Answer Book” (and its companion, “The Dog Behavior Answer Book”), Moore gives pet owners the tools and information they need to understand their cherished pets and manage any behavior challenges that arise.

Packed with enlightening answers to real questions from real cat owners about real cat problems, this book reflect Moore’s own kitty expertise (she’s a longtime cat mom herself) as well as the latest scientific research into the quirks and mysteries of feline behavior. Moore’s advice is sound, sensible, practical and always given in a warm, friendly, supportive tone. She’s never judgmental and doesn’t overcomplicate things.

The compact, welcoming “handbook” format is inviting rather than intimidating, encouraging curious ailurophiles to flip to any page to listen in on Moore’s warm, wise and witty advice. There’s lots to learn, whether you’re a new kitten parent or a veteran cat owner.

Moore deeply empathizes with cats and their humans, and understands the complex relationships they share. She knows that just a bit of help in navigating the rough spots of feline-human life can strengthen the interspecies bond — and save cats’ lives. Get this book, and join Arden Moore on her mission.

This is not the most amazing cat book ever. It is just another cat book. All these super positive reviews made me hope I would find answers that I haven’t been able to find in dozens of other cat books, but within seconds, I knew this wasn’t the book either. I looked up “spraying” in the index and all I got was Feliway for an answer, which I don’t believe really works. It doesn’t work on any of my eight cats. And medication, but doesn’t say what medication. Just go to the vet. Gee, thanks. Like I couldn’t figure that out.

Not what I was looking for. I’ve been a companion to cats for over 30 years and wanted to understand how to really take it to the next level: interpreting my kitty’s meows, understanding her moods, learning how to be the best pal I could be to my BFF. This book did not provide much more than overviews. The “overview” on meow-types was very paltry and did not even mention the type of sound my cat makes when she leaves a “gift” by my door. (She’s an indoor cat, but I hide a toy with cat treats in it every night and she finds it and brings it to my bedroom door as a gift. Too sweet.) I think this book would be best for brand new cat owners—I mean companions.
