This book translates--in case you missed anything. A renowned cat behavior scientist of over thirty years, Dr. Sarah Brown has been at the forefront of research in the field, discovering how cats use tail signals to interact with each other and their owners. Now, she reveals the previously unexplored secrets of cat communication in a book that is both scientifically grounded and utterly delightful. Each chapter dives into a different form of communication, including vocalizations, tail signals, scents, rubbing, and ear movements. The iconic meow, for example, is rarely used between adult cats--cleverly mimicking the cries of a human infant, the meow is a feline invention for conversing with people. Through observing the behavior of two cat colonies in rural England, readers will also have the opportunity to glimpse into the lives of some of the cats behind Dr. Brown's science. Can we understand what cats' meows and other signals mean? How do cats actually perceive us? And how can we use this information to inform how we talk back to our feline friends? Referencing historical records, exploring modern scientific studies of cat-human communication, and including simple, elegant line drawings, The Hidden Language of Cats is perfect for any cat lover who wants to learn more about their companion"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 636.8 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 636.8 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 636.8 Br Checked out 05/13/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 636.8 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult New Books 636.8 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 636.8 Br Checked out 05/01/2024 Add Copy to MyList
