Behavioral Change: Primary Behavioral Versus Neurologic

Modified from Ettinger S, Feldman E: Textbook of veterinary internal medicine, ed 4, St Louis, 1994, Saunders.

Behavioral Signs Usually Caused by a Primary Behavioral Problem

Aggression: dominance, competition, internal, fear, pain, learned, idiopathic
Fear: fearful reactions to thunderstorms, gunshots, fireworks, separation anxiety, other animals, specific people
Barking/hyperactivity: not true hyperkinesis
Destruction: scratching, chewing, digging
Roaming
Inappropriate elimination: marking territory, urine spraying in cats, submissive
Sexual: inappropriate mounting, lack of interest
Maternal: cannibalism, anxiety, pseudopregnancy, indifference
Predation feeding: aversions, coprophagy, pica, anorexia, wood chewing, grass and plant eating
Attention-getting: self-mutilation; biting or chewing own feet, tail, or objects; barking; chasing shadows
Stress response: self-mutilation, flank-sucking, head-bobbing or weaving, fly snapping, flank-staring, circling, face-rubbing, excessive grooming, tail and back twitching

Behavioral Signs Usually Caused by Neurologic Disease

Persistent circling
Aimless pacing
Head pressing/getting stuck in corners
Disorientation
Nonrecognition of owners and familiar objects
