Published: Oct. 30, 2023, 11:20 a.m.

Cats might have a bad rap for being aloof, cool, and uncommunicative\u2014but maybe that\u2019s because we haven\u2019t been paying close enough attention to see what they\u2019re trying to say. Our guest is cat behavior scientist Dr. Sarah Brown, with her new book THE HIDDEN LANGUAGE OF CATS: How They Have Us At Meow. Sarah Brown gained her PhD on the social behavior of neutered domestic cats while working at the Anthrozoology Institute at the University of Southampton in the UK. She has worked as an independent cat behavior counselor, as a consultant for the cat-toy industry, and has conducted research for and worked with several UK animal charities, and is the author of several books.
