Cat School - 0 views

  •  
    All cats love to play, and playing is an important part of any kittens development. Playing is how cats learn the important lessons of attack and defense. They may look cute when attacking a ball or piece of metal foil, but they are actually learning or practicing the art of stalking, chasing and pouncing. Cats need to play all through their lives, so don't stop playing with him just because he reaches adulthood. A cat that is played with regularly is more likely to be happy, content and healthy and less likely to suffer from behavioural and weight problems. Just like humans, a cat who remains ative in mind and body can remain healthy and alert well into their old age.

Behaviourism - 0 views

  • To the behaviourist about clocks, a clock is simply something with such time-indicating exterior parts
  • The inner workings of any clock are entirely irrelevant to its status as a clock, provided they produce (or at least don't interfere with) the movement of the hands. The anti-behaviourist, by contrast, thinks of a clock as an inner mechanism which, in favourable circumstances, can cause some exterior parts to move in a way which reliably indicates the time

      basically, a behaviorist thinks only of the outside, what they are able to observe.
