BOOK RECOMMENDATION
PURR: THE SCIENCE OF MAKING YOUR CAT HAPPY
By Zazie Todd
As a cat lover and an avid reader of Companion Animal Psychology, a blog by Dr. Zazie Todd, I was excited when her new book, Purr: The Science of Making Your Cat Happy was released. The book was written to help change the perception of cats as low-maintenance pets; that they only require food, safety and enrichment. A major focus is on the emotional and social needs of cats. They want to be happy. We want them to be happy; to have the happiest life possible. The first step is about finding out what matters to them. Dr. Todd focuses on the practical application of feline science to improve the human/feline bond. She addresses every stage of a cat’s life and combines science with practical advice to help us understand what matters to our cats. Each chapter concludes with a Apply the Science at Home which offers practical tips and ideas to use with our cat or cats.
Personally, the book deepened my awareness and understanding of mental health in pets. They have social and emotional needs just like we do. I have become more aware of my cat’s social needs. Instead of assuming I know what he wants or needs, I’m asking him what he wants and needs; I’m listening to him because I want him to be a purrfectly-happy cat.
