“You should actively engage your cat at least a couple of times a day with some predator-prey activity, such as chasing foil balls or chasing a feather lure on a stringed pole, to avoid a bored cat. For self-motivated entertainment, there are a variety of soft toys, balls, mice to chase. Cats love to hide and pounce. Give them a box with some random holes cut in it, or a good old paper bag.”
“Cats suit me. I like things that aren't always black and white. In science, you don't always know the answers. It isn't something totally under my control. It's not clear cut. It's mysterious. It's humbling.”
