NAL Call Number: 49 J82
Abstract: Faculty, staff; and graduate students in a number of departments, students in an under-graduate course, and some groups outside the university were polled to obtain their perceptions about whether domestic animals have minds, the ability to think, and differing degrees of intelligence (the surveys focused only on horses, cows, sheep, dogs, chickens, pigs, cats, and turkeys). A clear majority of all groups surveyed (except the Department of Zoology) said yes, they believe animals have minds, but a substantial number of those in animal sciences and zoology (17 to 25%) said no. A number of others in animal sciences, zoology, and philosophy (11 to 37%) refused to answer the question because the concept of mind was not defined. From 80 to 100% of respondents in other groups said yes to the question of minds. From 67 to 100% of all participants said yes, they perceive that animals have the ability to think, but a substantial number of animal scientists, zoologists, veterinarians, and English faculty said no, animals don't think (6 to 33%). On the question Do domestic animals differ in relative intelligence?, the responses varied from 88% in animal sciences to 100%. Surprisingly, when asked to rank different animal species by intelligence, there was a remarkable degree of similarity across all groups regardless of background: the overall ranking from highest intelligence to lowest was dog, cat, pig, horse, cow, sheep, chicken, and turkey. Most of the respondents believed that the possession of minds, thought, and intelligence were relevant factors in how animals should be treated and the prevalent concept was that we should not be cruel to animals, but should treat them. humanely.

Abstract: This paper provides a working framework for enhancing the well-being of senior pet dogs and cats. Approaches to screening the medical status of senior pets are described in detail, with particular emphasis on establishing baseline data in healthy animals, the testing of clinically ill animals, and assessing senior pets prior to anesthesia and surgery. The management of pain and distress and the application of hospice and palliative care are addressed. Advice on ways to approach euthanasia and dealing with end-of-life issues is also provided.

Hartmann, K. and M. Kuffer (1998). Karnofsky's score modified for cats. European Journal of Medical Research 3(1-2): 95-98.
Abstract: The index of Karnofsky evaluating quality of life was originally developed by David A. Karnofsky in 1948. It determines the ability of a patient to carry on normal activities in life by using a scale from 0 to 100%. This index was modified for the cat. The index enables judgment of life quality and well-being in cats which is very difficult to interpret. Objectivity is given by a classification orientated in details concerning general condition as well as eating, playing, sleeping, and social behavior.

NAL Call Number: 49 J82
Abstract: A survey and pre- and postcourse examinations were administered to students (n = 23) enrolled in a companion animal (dog and cat) care course. The course objectives were to assess a student's knowledge base and then help him or her gain the knowledge to maintain the health, well-being, and longevity of companion animals. Four teaching modules were used in this course: 1) general lectures by the instructor; 2) special topics presented by guest professors; 3) videos shown in class; and 4) out-of-class experiential learning projects. The examination questions were developed from these modules. At the end of the academic term (quarter), students evaluated the course and each teaching module using a scale of 1 (= poor) to 5 (= very good). Seventy percent of the students enrolled in the course were female. The disciplines represented were animal health/preveterinary medicine (34.8% ), animal science (21.7%), arts and science (13.0%), education (8.7%), forestry (8.6%), nursing education (4.4%), and 8.7% undecided. Only 15% had been exposed to an animal and dairy science introductory course. Students rated the course good (4.2 +/- .83 with 5 = very good) and agreed (4.4 +/- .87 with 5 = strongly agree) that the course provided a valuable learning experience. Average student score on the precourse examination (38.6% correct answers) improved dramatically on the postcourse examination (92.0% correct answers; P < .001). A positive correlation was observed between students' evaluation of the teaching modules and their total postcourse examination score (P < .05). Results indicated that the companion animal care course attracted students from disciplines other than that of. animal science. Students evaluated the course as favorable, and their knowledge base of companion animal care was significantly expanded.

Abstract: Cat owners commonly consider their pets to be members of their families, and many factors contribute to a high level of owner attachment to their cats. Suppression of a cat's emotional needs in favour of the emotional requirements of the owner may produce a less satisfactory relationship for the owner, and usually for the cat as well. Owners' failure to comprehend their cat's true demands of life, and their false expectation of their ability to fulfil human psychological demands lies at the heart of many feline behaviour problems.

Abstract: Behavioral wellness has become a recent focus for the care of laboratory animals, farm and zoo animals, and pets. Behavioral enrichment issues for these groups are more similar than dissimilar, and each group can learn from the other. The emphasis on overall enhancement for laboratory dogs and cats in this review includes an emphasis on behavioral enrichment. Understanding the range of behaviors, behavioral choices, and cognitive stimulation that cats and dogs exhibit under non-laboratory conditions can increase the ability of investigators to predict which enrichments are likely to be the most successful in the laboratory. Many of the enrichment strategies described are surprisingly straightforward and inexpensive to implement.

Abstract: In recent years, there has been an increase in interest in applied ethology and animal welfare, and an increase in the popularity of the domestic cat. This has stimulated research on the behaviour and welfare of cats kept in different environments. This article presents a review of the recent research and makes recommendations for the housing of domestic cats in the home, in catteries and animal shelters, in laboratories and in veterinary surgeries.
