What does a cat need besides food, a comfortable home and access to a good vet? PLAY!

This practical guide from leading cat behaviour scientist Mikel Delgado explains how interactive play is at the centre of your cat's overall health. Revealing how it mimics the hunting experience that shaped cats' evolution, Play With Your Cat! includes:

  • Advice on selecting toys and setting up your home environment for the perfect play session
  • Guidance on specific play techniques to exercise your cat's body and mind
  • Tips on engaging nonchalant, anxious and uninterested kitties

With charming illustrations to demonstrate different techniques and evidence-based advice to help you deepen your relationship with your furry friend, this is an essential handbook for cat owners everywhere.
