How To Pet A Cat

Emma and Evan are two siblings who loved animals but couldn't have a pet of their own because of their dad's allergies. Lucky for them, their neighbor, a kind veterinarian named Dr. Lopez, had a dog they could play with. But when Dr. Lopez brings home a cat, the kids have to learn they can't play the same way they had with the dog. They have to learn how to pet a cat!

How To Pet A Cat teaches children what to do when they first meet a cat. And let's be honest, many adults need to learn this too! For some animals, learning and survival instincts are tied to fear, so it's important to keep things peaceful and predictable as we socialize an animal companion to ourselves, our home, and our friends and family. We can't always know what a cat is thinking but we can do our best to adjust our behavior to make them feel as comfortable and as safe as possible. And a cat who feels safe is more likely to be a happy, responsive, and loving friend. First impressions are so important and that's why we all must learn How To Pet A Cat!
