"One of the predominant reasons that owners abandon or give up their pets is because of unwanted behaviors. Many have tried to instruct proper cat training. Now experts at the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists provide an in-depth understanding of the underlying reasons for a cat's problem behavior, giving owners new insight on promoting their cat's physical and psychological health and wellness and maintaining a long and fulfilling relationship together.
