Books : Cat Vs. Cat: Keeping Peace When You Have More Than One Cat

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great help at home!!!!
Cat Vs. Cat: Keeping Peace When You Have More Than One CatThis book is a magnificent help for all persons like me who has more than one cat at home. I have 4, but one of them is very possessive, he don't want anybody near me, and this book was a strong help to control him with love and many resources. Really Pam Jhonson-Bennett knows very well the cats behavior.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is pretty darn good
I've had to introduce adult male cats before and learned a lot of the stuff in this book THE HARD WAY. Wish I had this book the first time. I'm currently introduding two adult cats (one male, one female) to my clan of two males, and I knew it was going to be harder than the first go round. I searched for a good book on behavior knowing I would need more help. The litterbox info alone is worth the price of this book. Please buy this book before you ever try to introduce cats to cats...don't just throw them together and let them work it out! It will be worth the planning and patience in the long run!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Cat Vs. Cat: Keeping Peace When You Have More Than One Cat.
This book has a heck of a lot of information on cats. If you think you know about felines - think again! Read and learn! This book will help you become a better guardian and your cats will benefit.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - One size doesn't always fit all.
Good discussion but not everything applied to my cats, especially in the section that translated behavior/signals



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - New insights for long-time cat owner
I have been a cat owner for over 20 years, have taken undergraduate and graduate courses in animal behavior, and have extensive experience in psychiatric (human) nursing. My first cat was a stray whose long-term companion was a terrier mix with a history of physical abuse. We had challenges rehabilitating the dog, but never had any behavioral problems with the cat who lived to be thirteen. My next cat was a 1.5 year-old spayed female adopted from the humane society who was joined 6 months later by a 4-month-old rescued and neutered male kitten. I remarried a few years later and my 1-child/2-cat household was increased by 1 adult male and an English Springer Spaniel. Again - no behavioral problems. A few months ago, our now 13-year-old female cat died from long-term chronic renal failure. Our now 11-year-old male cat became withdrawn and lost weight. We decided to adopt a 1.5 year-old recently spayed female cat. We did the standard isolation and gradual introduction of the new cat into the household. Despite this the new cat is over-grooming to the point of self-mutilation and began spraying a few weeks ago. We had been back to the vet and I was feeling desperate. I updated my cat-health-care library when my former female cat became ill. I recently added this book, Cat vs. Cat: Keeping Peace... It has provided several new insights and problem-solving techniques. I introduced the interactive (human-cat) parallel (cat-cat) play experiences. The cat vs. cat stress has improved significantly and the cats now seem to enjoy hanging out together in the same room. So long as the distance between them is 2 feet or greater there is no hissing and spitting. We are still working on the spraying and over-grooming... I highly recommend this book for anyone who is sharing their life with more than one cat!
