I got this off the packaging of a cat toy. Trust the Americans to think of such things.

It is like the Maslow hierachy for kitties. Sister S tried it on Spencer.

PHYSICAL NEEDS:

nutrition plenty
exercise negligible
hygiene maximum
stimulation minimal
rest too much
safety definitely

INSTINCTUAL NEEDS:

hunt been there, done that 8 years ago
privacy got
scratch re-implemented

EMOTIONAL NEEDS

interaction Sister S said I FAILED badly
treats not allowed
independence within the 4 walls, yes.

I guess we have to re-look into Spencer's needs...........
