Curious to understand why your cat does all the things they do?

Join this engaging session with feline behaviorist Stephen Quandt live on Zoom as he explains cat behavior from the perspective of the evolutionary and adaptive forces that help shape their lives. Learn about cats’ relationship to hunting and resting, “drive-by” ankle biting and play aggression, the confidence scale, early morning wake up, exercise and more. He will also discuss their relationship to us as influenced by the mother/kitten dynamic and how food affects cats and our relationships with them. A Q & A will follow the presentation.
