Mieshelle Nagelschneider–veteran cat behaviorist and author of the new book “The Cat Whisperer: Why Cats Do What They Do–And How To Get Them To Do What You Want”–discusses her formative years, where the family home had dogs, but there were also barn (feral) cats that caught her fancy.She also addresses the evolution from vet tech to cat behaviorist, to–in 1999–founding The Cat Behavior Clinic, a consulting service that help people worldwide solve behavioral problems and other issues with their cats. She also explains the pivotal importance of litter box placement–and quantity, in multiple cat households, and related issues. She speaks to the towering importance of territoriality in cats, the horrific reality of declawing (which is actually amputating part of the cats’ toes), and fields a number of listener questions. www.thecatbehaviorclinic.comwww.facebook.com/catbehaviorist)
