About the course

Aim

Efter avslutad kurs ska den studerande kunna:

redogöra för kattens plats i evolutionen
redogöra för tamkattens relation till vilda kattdjur
redogöra för kattens plats i den mänskliga historien
redogöra för hur människor har betraktat katter genom historien
redogöra för kattens ”språk” genom dess vokaliseringar
redogöra för hur människor och djur kommunicerar
diskutera människors och djurs kommunikation

Content

I kursen behandlas kattens plats i det taxonomiska trädet och dess evolution, vilket inkluderar tamkattens relation till vilda kattdjur. Kattens domesticering och historia som husdjur beskrivs baserat på aktuell forskning. Kattens personlighet och psykologi täcks. Fokus läggs på kattens rika språk (vokaliseringar) och deras karaktäristik (fonetiskt, akustiskt, funktionellt), men även hur kattens övriga sinnen spelar roll i interaktionen med människan och andra djur (hörsel, syn, luktsinne, doftmarkeringar, kroppsspråk etc).
