Ep63 - Kelley Bollen - a podcast by The Community Cats Podcast

Kelley earned a Master’s in Animal Behavior, has taught at Cornell Veterinary School, and now consults with both pet owners and shelters to improve life and outcomes for companion animals. She and Stacy talk all things behavior, and how to make life for cats happier and healthier.  Kelley offers some useful tips to help Stacy’s rotund cat slim down, a number of great ideas for providing more enjoyment and enrichment for a kitty [play some bird song CD’s!] and tackles the always-problematic issue of litter box avoidance.  She notes that she frequently feels like a detective when trying to narrow down the reasons why a cat is eliminating inappropriately.  About covered boxes, she notes, "How do you feel when you have to go into a Porta-potty? That’s what a covered box can be for a cat.”
