Book Overview

"I have to hand it to Bradshaw and Ellis: Once you suss out their basic cat-training philosophy, their methods totally work." -- Slate

We often assume that cats can't be trained, and don't need to be. But in The Trainable Cat, bestselling anthrozoologist John Bradshaw and cat expert Sarah Ellis show that cats absolutely must be trained in order to enrich the bond between pet and owner. Full of training tips and exercises -- from introducing your cat to a new baby to helping them deal with visits to the vet -- The Trainable Cat is the essential cat bible for cat owners and lovers.

"I doubt you'll find a more well-informed or scientific book on cats that better shows you how feline thinking works." -- Times (UK)

About John Bradshaw
STEVE KELTON (1951-2022) spent 42 years as an editor for the San Angelo-based Livestock Weekly. A West Texas native, he was the son of the late Western novelist and livestock journalist Elmer Kelton. During his youth, Steve spent as much time as possible on the McElroy Ranch in West Texas's Crane and Upton counties. Managed by his grandfather, Buck Kelton, the McElroy was where Elmer and his brothers grew up. Aside from journalism, Steve was the author of the nonfiction books, Renderbrook, A Century Under The Spade Brand, a history of the Renderbrook Spade ranch in West Texas; and Grassroots Legacy, a commissioned history of the Texas Farm Bureau's first 50 years. JOHN BRADSHAW is a West Texas native and award-winning journalist who has written for the San Angelo-based Livestock Weekly for nearly twenty years. He is an avid horseman and a livestock producer. He lives outside the small town of Abernathy with his wife Sara. Elmer Kelton's The Familiar Stranger is his first book.
