Companion Animal Psychology
Today's site, from psychologist Dr. Zazie Todd, offers a noteworthy blog
dedicated to discussing the latest scientific research on companion animals.
Gentle Subscribers will find ample material to enrich their interactions with
their pets and become more knowledgeable about the animals in their care.
"Because science matters to our dogs and cats. ... Companion Animal Psychology
... is about the science of people's relationships with their pets. Topics
include dog training, canine behaviour, feline behaviour, enrichment, behaviour
problems, attachment to pets, and the human-animal bond. Dogs, cats, rabbits,
ferrets, guinea pigs, horses and fish are all included." - from the website
As an increasingly large segment of the population share their homes with
companion animals, science has stepped up its research to improve the quality
of life for household pets and by extension, their owners. Generally updated on
a weekly basis since 2012, this interesting blog provides articles covering the
latest scientific findings. Recent reports have noted the way cats utilize
vertical space, a humane way to deal with canine barking issues, and a reminder
that disaster planning should include pets, while a sidebar highlights a
collection of popular articles featuring such topics as where cats like to be
stroked and the importance of pets to homeless youth.
