Book excerpt: A pure breed of cat is one that specifies the lineage of the cat, and means that it has no other breed mix in its blood or heritage than that which it is named. Many people who adopt or purchase a cat do not think in the terms of "purebred." They fall in love with the cat or kitten's characteristics, personality and behaviors. There are some, however, who have a particular breed of cat in mind when purchasing or adopting a cat. Maybe they fell in love with the look of a particular breed, or they need their cat to be hairless, such in the case of the hairless cat breed. Or perhaps they just like the status of saying they own a pure bred. When you get a pure bred cat, if purchased from a reputable cat breeder, you are getting a cat that has a long lineage of cats from the same breed. Every time a litter of kittens is born, each kitten is registered with the Cat Fancier's Association (CFA), and they can trace each kitten's heritage with registration papers to see its long history of pure breeding. Pure bred cats are mated with their like breed; for instance, a pure bred Persian with another pure bred Persian, and Siamese with a Siamese, and so on. There cannot be any other breed of cat in the lineage or the offspring will not be considered pure bred. One big misconception that's often made when speaking about cat breeds is with Calicos. Many people think Calicos are a type of breed when it is not. Calico refers to the coloring of a cat, and not a breed.

Book excerpt: Practical and effective strategies for solving every feline behavior problem imaginable—from litter box issues to scratching, spraying, biting, and beyond. “Mieshelle Nagelschneider is a wizard at demystifying cat behavior and providing easy-to-follow steps for solving vexing problems.”—Bob Tarte, author of Kitty Cornered Cat Whisperer Mieshelle Nagelschneider has been helping people deal with these dilemmas for two decades, achieving a near-perfect success rate. Central to her approach is a keen understanding of the unique way cats see the world—their need for safety and security, their acute territoriality, and their insatiable desire to catch and kill prey. Her proven C.A.T. cat behavior modification plan is a commonsense course of action that can be specifically tailored to your cat in the context of its behavior problems and its particular household environment. Easy-to-implement solutions help transform even the most anxiety-riddled companions into confident, gregarious, and relaxed cats who live longer, happier, and healthier lives. Inside you’ll discover • how to harness the power of “friendly pheromones” to improve your cat’s appetite, exploration, grooming, and play • where, when, and how to create a litter box environment that will provide ease of access and reduce anxiety for you and your cat • how to end aggression in multiple-cat households and help your cats coexist peacefully Who says you can’t train a cat? In this fascinating and indispensable book, the Cat Whisperer takes you inside the mind of a feline to explain why members of one of the world’s most inscrutable species act the way they do—and how you can convince them to change their behaviors for the sake of your peace of mind . . . and theirs.
