From the author of Catwise and Think Like a Cat, the ultimate resource for managing a multi-pet household.

Pam Johnson-Bennett, the award-winning author and feline behaviorist, shows how adding another cat to your home does not have to be the start of a kitty apocalypse. Although cats are often misunderstood as natural loners, Johnson-Bennett shows how to plan, set up, and maintain a home environment that will help multiple cats—and their owners—live in peace. Cat vs. Cat will help readers understand the importance of territory, the specialized communication cats use to establish relationships and hierarchies, and how to interpret the so-called “bad behavior” that leads so many owners to needless frustration. Offering a wealth of information on how to diffuse tension, prevent squabbles and ambushes, blend two families, or help the elder kitty in your family, Cat vs. Cat is a welcome resource for both seasoned and prospective guardians of cat families large and small.

      Statistics indicate that cats are among the most popular pets-and that most cat owners have more than one. An award-winning feline behaviorist and author, Johnson-Bennett provides practical advice for developing and maintaining multicat households. Her topics include the feline hierarchy (contrary to popular opinion, cats are social creatures), cat communication (e.g., vocalizations, postures), the importance of territory, how to introduce new cats into the mix, and a variety of care issues (e.g., feeding, play time, litter boxes, scratching, aggression, stress management, aging, and illness). If followed, Johnson-Bennett's advice should help reduce the number of cats that are euthanized or turned in to shelters for behavioral problems. Highly recommended for pet care collections, especially those that contain the author's Think Like a Cat. (Appendix and index not seen.)-Edell M. Schaefer, Brookfield P.L., WI
