"A fount of practical tips for cat owners." —The New York Times

From a leading veterinary psychiatrist, a groundbreaking look into the minds of our feline companions and "a guide to being the best humans we can be for our cats" (Focus Vif).
Cats are mysterious creatures, and the relationship between humans and cats has never been simple. They are contradictory creatures: curious and aloof, independent and affectionate, predator and prey. Their true nature continues to elude us, and their subtle and complex behavioral problems can often seem unsolvable or incomprehensible. So, how can we tell when our pets are suffering? How can we understand their aggression? And how can we treat patients who can't speak for themselves?

In this fascinating book—a bestseller in its native France—veterinary doctor and psychiatrist Claude Béata draws on cutting-edge research and decades of experience to revolutionize our understanding of cats and transform our appreciation of feline mental well-being. Here, we meet Nougatine, a Siamese with an aggressive streak; Tabatha, a Ragdoll with separation anxiety; and Melly, an Abyssinian struggling with a feline form of schizophrenia—as well as their owners, who seek advice and support. Through their stories, Dr. Béata takes us inside the minds of cats, helping us to improve our relationships with them and love them even more.

Charming, surprising, and offering illuminating insight into a range of disorders, The Interpretation of Cats provides readers with a new understanding of cat behavior so we can care for the mental and physical wellness of our beloved furry friends. The result is an indispensable and eye-opening guide to our most enigmatic companions.
