Virtual: Play with Your Cat! with Animal Behaviorist Mikel Maria Delgado

Please join us for this informative session with animal behaviorist and author Mikel Maria Delgado!

Millions of households in the United States have at least one cat as part of their family. Yet despite their popularity, cats continue to be misunderstood by their owners. This lack of understanding can lead to bored, frustrated, and under-stimulated cats, resulting in health and behavior problems. In Play with Your Cat!, animal behavior expert Dr.Mikel Maria Delgado shows cat parents what they may be missing: interactive play. Using an evidence-based approach and the latest scientific research, Delgado:

  • shows why cats need play and how it is essential to their well-being
  • provides readers with techniques on how to engage their cat in play
  • reveals how to use play to improve problematic cat behaviors
