  What should you do if your cat doesn't like your husband? Why do some cats eat underwear? How should you deal with cats that spray your visitors, pee on your bed or scream for attention all night long? These are just a few of the problems that Peter Neville, cat psychologist, deals with regularly. This book traces the development of the relationship between cats and human beings and the way in which this wild predator has adapted to modern life with us. He describes various case histories from his file and outlines some of the reasons why behaviour problems can occur. Sometimes it's the home environment, the cat's relationship with a member of the family its friends and rivals along the street, or perhaps a problem stemming from its early life. Peter examines the possibilities and suggests plans of treatment of each eventuality that should improve or alleviate most problem cat behaviour.
