Inappropriate scratching? Peeing outside the litterbox? Does your cat hold a grudge? Should Fluffy go outside? What to do when bringing a new cat home?

All these questions and more answered on this episode of Hack the Chat where we talk to Rachel Geller, Ed. D, cat behaviorist, pet chaplain, and humane education specialist about all things feline-related.
