Guide Review
Haunting Experiences
In The Cat who Cried for Help, Dr. Nicholas Dodman explores feline behavioral aberrations that haunt cat lovers: redirected aggression, inappropriate elimination, yowling at night, wool-sucking, and self-mutilation, to name a few. His treatment methods combine extensive re-training and discrete medication, and he is not afraid to admit an occasional failure.
