Ever wondered how to help your feline friends live their best lives? Get ready to unravel the mysteries of cat behavior with us on Hiss and Tell as Kristiina Wilson teams up with journalist and documentarian David Farrier for an engaging AMA episode. From handling intercat aggression to counter-surfing deterrents, we tackle questions sourced from David's vibrant Webworm community, sharing our expertise alongside anecdotes from David's documentary adventures, including a playful detour into the world of cat shows with his family's Birman cat.

Our conversation dives into practical solutions for common feline behavioral challenges. Whether you're grappling with a solo cat's play aggression or trying to keep your furry friend off the counters, we offer insights into using positive reinforcement, high-value treats, and understanding natural hunting instincts. We also discuss strategies to improve relationships with resident cats that feel threatened by newcomers and explore the benefits of adopting kittens in pairs to support their social development. This episode is packed with actionable advice designed to enrich the lives of both cats and their humans.

Rounding off the episode, we delve into the nuances of territorial spraying and instinctual actions around food, water, and litter boxes. From managing territorial instincts with innovative solutions like motion-activated sprinklers to detailed tips for grooming and maintaining hygiene, our conversation is a heartfelt celebration of the Webworm community. Join us as we connect over our shared love for cats and other creatures, leaving you with a new appreciation for the interconnectedness of all animals.
