From John Bradshaw, one of the world's leading experts on animal behaviour, & the author of the Sunday Times Bestseller, In Defence of Dogs, Cat Sense is a scientific portrait of the true, surprising nature of cats. Worshipped as gods, feared as demonic servants, seen as both wild opportunists & beloved companions, cats often seem as unfathomable, enigmatic & magical to us today as they did in ancient times. They have lived with humans for at least ten thousand years (far earlier than the reign of the Pharaohs), & today are the most popular pet in the world. That they now outnumber the dog, man's 'best friend', by three to one, is small wonder: at once affectionate & self-reliant, they seem to be perfectly suited to our busy 21st Century lifestyles. Yet cats still think like the wild scavengers & hunters from which they are descended
- & to which they can quickly revert. Today, they face unprecedented challenges in their life with humans: from conservationists who cast them as a threat to wildlife; from other cats who they compete for territory with; & from good-intentioned owners & vets with misconceptions of what they require. Cats need not so much our sympathy, but our understanding, if they are to continue to enjoy our companionship. The recent surge in feline science
- with John Bradshaw at the forefront
- means we are now better equipped to understand them than ever before. Cat Sense offers us for the first time a true picture of one of humanity's closest & most enigmatic companions. Praise for In Defence of Dogs: The most fantastic book, a revelation. (Observer). Essential reading. (Daily Telegraph). Nothing less than a manifesto for a new understanding. (Guardian). A case grounded in kindness & science... Authoritative, wise & rather moving. (Independent). A wonderful, reassuring, & encouraging book. (Literary Review). A wonderfully informative, passionate book. (Economist). John Bradshaw is a biologist who founded & directs the world-renowned Anthrozoology Institute, based at the University of Bristol. He has been studying the behaviour of domestic cats & their owners for over 25 years, & is the author of many scientific articles, research papers & reviews. He is also the author of the Sunday Times bestseller, In Defence of Dogs.
