With paw, whisker, tail, meow, and posture at their disposal, cats have a whole range of gestures and movements that allow them to communicate their feelings and needs. In "Chats with Cats," Celia Haddon explains cat language in all its permutations, providing an insight into their fancies and foibles, their likes and dislikes. By tracing the cat's ancestry, especially the reasons behind its predatory and territorial instincts, she reveals how to understand and solve many behavioural problems--and even gives pointers on how to train your cat.
