Today at the library I checked out a book on cat behaviour called STARTING FROM SCRATCH: HOW TO CORRECT BEHAVIOR IN YOUR ADULT CAT by Pam Johnson-Bennett.
I've just started reading it, and I'm devouring it and may order a copy from amazon.
My adult shelter cat doesn't have a lot of behavior problems (except right now he's meowing to high heaven at the windows, because he wants to go out - and we were out for a long time on his harness and leash this morning!)
The book is very good, and I highly recommend it - just knowing about normal feline behavior is an eye opener, and spending time in play is important.
And speaking of that - I think I'm going to 'rescue' my meowing unhappy indoor cat now and get out a couple of our wand toys.
