About this listen

In Top Ten Cat Myths Debunked: Separating Feline Fact from Fiction, author and feline behaviour expert Maeve Callen dismantles the ten most persistent—and potentially harmful—beliefs about cats. With warmth, clarity, and scientific insight, she replaces myth with truth, helping cat owners better understand their companions and make informed choices rooted in fact rather than folklore.

Ever heard that “cats always land on their feet”? While cats do have an extraordinary righting reflex, they are not invincible, and serious injuries from falls are all too common. Or perhaps you’ve been told that “cats are solitary creatures” who don’t need companionship—when in fact, many cats crave connection and form deep bonds with humans and other animals.

This book tackles enduring misconceptions with thoughtful explanations and practical advice. From the belief that cats purr only when they’re happy (spoiler: they also purr when they’re injured or stressed) to the myth that cats hate water or need milk in their diets, each chapter explores where the myth came from, how it took root, and why it needs to be re-examined.
