Preventing Cat Fights: New Guidelines on Intercat Tension

Two cats fighting
The American Association of Feline Practitioners just released its new Guidelines on Intercat Tension. That might not seem breaking news to most pet owners, but if you are a reader with more than one cat, you may be acutely aware of the tension between your cats, or you may be missing the subtle signs of intercat tension in your home. Not only were these guidelines created by a highly qualified task force, but they have also been endorsed by the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior and the International Society of Feline Medicine. This set of guidelines has fabulous information for veterinarians and cat families alike.
