Beschreibung

The Veterinary Psychiatry of Cats introduces veterinary behavioral medicine and veterinary psychiatry using the domestic cat as its model. This book combines the most up-to-date understanding of biology of this beloved, revered and often maligned species with learnings from the fields of normal and abnormal psychology. Written by a leading expert in feline behavior, this book begins by assessing "normal factors of feline behavior, from neuroanatomy, neuroendocrinology, cognitive and social abilities. Delving into psychiatry, it then discusses mental health disorders, hindered development, and trauma. Psychopharmacology, including medications and supplements, are also explained.

The Veterinary Psychiatry of Cats finishes with a comprehensive view of feline welfare management, how to treat cats humanely and how to house them responsibly given their behaviors. This is an ideal resource for feline behavioral specialists, veterinarians and domestic animal researchers and practitioners, including veterinary technicians, students and even feline owners.
