The Behaviour Guide is part of a series of informative guides which have been created specifically for Cats Protection users, including The Welfare Guide, The Veterinary Guide and The Feral Guide. The guide has been written with particular reference to the ‘shelter behaviour’ approach, however many of the principles covered by the guide can be applied to cats in environments other than rescue. While it is aimed primarily at Cats Protection people, as well as the vet profession that are involved in the care of Cats Protection cats, it is hoped that this guide will also be useful for other animal welfare charities and boarding catteries as well as veterinary, vet nurse, behaviour and animal welfare students and other cat professionals. 4 The Behaviour Guide XX The guide is divided into four main sections. What is cat behaviour? • Promoting normal cat behaviour Cats are fascinating animals. Images and videos of domestic cats make up some of the • Cat behaviour in the rescue environment most viewed content on the web. At the heart • Information for caregivers of our affection for cats lies the pleasure we • Common cat behavioural problems experience in observing their behaviour and in our interactions with them. It is not within the scope of this guide to attempt to resolve behavioural problems. Each Cat ‘behaviour’ is defined as the way in which a behaviour case is unique; an evidence based, cat behaves in response to a particular situation scientific approach tailored to the individual cat in their environment. Behaviour is an external is required. The guide is intended to provide expression influenced by the cat’s internal, general guidance and where necessary will link emotional state at that moment in time.

The aim of this guide is to shared with the African wildcat underpins the enhance the knowledge and understanding of natural range of cat behaviours specifically basic cat behaviour principles for those people associated to and necessary for a solitary hunter. working with cats. Despite being emotional animals, they lack some of the emotions specific to humans, which can lead to misunderstandings. You can find out more about normal cat behaviour in the section called ‘Understanding cats needs and domestication’ in the next chapter. As well as evolutionary behavioural features that make a cat a cat, an individual cat’s behaviour is influenced by inherited genetic factors (nature). A cat’s behaviour is also influenced to a great degree by their environment (nurture); most critically environmental factors during the early learning period of kittens from two to seven weeks of age known as the ‘socialisation period’. For cats, many of their specific behaviours are influenced by their previous experiences. > 5 The Behaviour Guide INTRODUCTION Humans are a predominantly social species.

Thirty-eight years old and slight of frame, Acosta has a sheepish but subtly theatrical demeanor that gives every conversation the feel of a performance. Though he grew up in Lincoln Heights and Baldwin Hills, he lived in Europe on and off through his 20s, speaks French, some German and some Spanish, and maintains a somewhat self-conscious relationship to English, his diction intermittently formal and colloquial. His process is one of meandering absorption, his work the outgrowth, in many cases, of his interactions with a particular place.” Holly Myers, Los Angeles Times, 2011.

  • In Search of Japanoise Globalizing Underground Music
    16 In Search of Japanoise Globalizing Underground Music David Novak In 1990, I had just returned from a year of teaching English in Japan, so I was surprised when I came back to college in Ohio and started to hear about “Jap- anese Noise Music.” Some cut out the “music” idea altogether and called it all “Japanese Noise,” and others just compressed it to “Japanoise.” The name was supposed to identify a specic Japanese type of “Noise,” which was already a pretty vague genre name. Some friends added that its top artists mostly came from the Kansai region and the cities Osaka and Kyoto where I’d been living. I’d run into some noisy punk rock and experimental music in little under- ground record stores and small clubs around Japan … but Japanoise? I had never heard of it until I was back in the United States, when the Boredoms’ LP Soul Discharge found its way to the college radio station where I was a DJ, and tapped into the emerging independent music scene. At the time, the ow of underground cassettes, CDs, and vinyl into the station was increasing on a daily level. But dropping the needle on Soul Discharge released the most spectacularly dissonant racket I’d ever heard, tog- gling through a spectrum of styles and sounds. Sometimes Boredoms sounded like a hardcore band, sometimes a random Dada cutup of popular culture: it was desperately heavy but also funny as hell. You couldn’t possibly take it seriously, but, at the same time, it demanded your full attention.
