Why are some cats calm?

PoC avatarPosted on February 6, 2017 by Michael BroadFebruary 6, 2017

“Why are some cats calm?” is a basic question and you might have thought that is does not require an answer but I believe that it does because it is asked on the internet. People want some guidance on this …

PoC avatarPosted on March 28, 2016 by Michael BroadMarch 28, 2016

We know that cats have individual personalities just like people. Over the years various cat behaviour experts have broken down the domestic cat’s personality into various headings so that we can better understand our cat. Researchers at the University of …

If Domestic Cats Were Bigger They Might Try and Kill Us. Therefore Size Matters

PoC avatarPosted on November 7, 2015 by Michael BroadNovember 7, 2015

Anybody who reads about cats on the Internet could not fail to have noticed that almost every news outlet is discussing research carried out by the University of Edinburgh which confirms what we generally already know namely that the domestic …

Why are Siamese cats so clingy?

PoC avatarPosted on May 27, 2015 by Michael BroadMarch 3, 2019

I don’t believe Siamese cats are necessarily clingy. For ‘clingy’ you might, instead, describe the Siamese as liking human company. Clingy is being a bit critical whereas a cat who likes to be around people is desirable. There are other …

Do older people like different cats to younger people?

PoC avatarPosted on October 14, 2014 by Michael BroadOctober 14, 2014

This is an off-the-cuff post and it is probably a slightly complicated subject which may require more than I am willing to give it. It is more a discussion document than the complete package. As they are retired, older people …

Do You Have An “Alpha” Cat?

PoC avatarPosted on March 22, 2014 by Michael BroadMarch 22, 2014

If you’ve ever had more than one dog in your family at a time, you’re probably aware of the term “alpha” dog. The “alpha” dog is usually the dog that keeps the rest of the dogs in line and sometimes …

Are Cats Manipulative or Is What you See What you Get?

PoC avatarPosted on February 28, 2014 by Michael BroadFebruary 28, 2014

It would be a huge understatement for me to say that when it comes to feline behavioral issues, my husband Marty and I often don’t see eye-to-eye. As an example, the other day I was becoming extremely frustrated with Dr. …

Stray cat was “too nice to return to the great outdoors”

PoC avatarPosted on February 2, 2014 by Michael BroadFebruary 2, 2014

Some cats that are trapped and neutered are not returned to whence they came. They are adopted because they are deemed “too nice to return to the great outdoors”. But what does that mean? And is the world of cat …

My cat LOVES to show his belly

PoC avatarPosted on January 24, 2014 by Michael BroadJanuary 24, 2014

By Reno As you can see, he is quite sweet and LOVES to show his belly.  He is the only cat I have ever had that actually begs for belly rubbies.  🙂

Personal Space of the Cat

PoC avatarPosted on January 14, 2014 by Michael BroadJanuary 14, 2014

I have noticed that cats in groups are fairly evenly spaced compared to people. This is not hugely significant but interesting. It struck me that cats standing around in sanctuaries often keep a bit of space between themselves. You would never …

Obsessive Compulsive Cat Has Trouble Getting His Pills

PoC avatarPosted on January 13, 2014 by Michael BroadJanuary 13, 2014

Cat guardians whose kitties begin acting strangely often get frustrated and upset with their cat’s bizarre behavior. Being unable to communicate with them verbally makes it even more difficult to pin-point the problem. Many years ago, Sir Hubble Pinkerton, our …

Our Animals Teach us Unconditional Love: Can we Learn to Love One Another the Same Way?

PoC avatarPosted on January 3, 2014 by Michael BroadJanuary 3, 2014

“Active Cat” – Inherited, Learned or Stimulated?

PoC avatarPosted on December 28, 2013 by Michael BroadDecember 28, 2013

Is there such a thing as an active cat breed? Can you group cats into active and inactive? I am not sure that you can. Although cat breed personality descriptions are notoriously variable, vague and imprecise, the Cat Fanciers’ Association …

Cats are aloof? No, we have misplaced ideas!

PoC avatarPosted on December 18, 2013 by Michael BroadDecember 18, 2013

I’ll be honest. It irritates me to read descriptions of the domestic cat as “aloof”. The domestic cat is not aloof. People are (incorrectly) comparing cats to dogs and concluding that, in comparison, a cat is more independent and less …
