This is a book aimed at cat people with a sense of humor! November 30, 1998 I have been owned by cats all of my life, currently by five of them. I thought I knew all there was to know about our furball friends, but Paulette Cooper and Paul Noble have managed to dig up many new things for me to ponder. The topic of "How to tell if your cat is hung over" is just one of the valuable pieces of information most people wouldn't think of, especially those who think it's cute to give their pets beer to slurp. Don't do it! If you don't believe me, read the book and find out why you might make your cat sick! I found something new and interesting on every page. The only problem I had reading the book was sharing the book with my husband who wanted to read it first. We both loved this book and will be giving it to our catty friends for Christmas, that's for sure!
A collection of inane and useless drivel! November 3, 1998 As a lover and collector of cat books, especially those with a humorous bent, I have seen more than my share of writings dedicated to our feline friends, enjoying nearly each and every one of them; this absurd assortment of inane verbage is clearly an exception. What can one say about such topics as "How to tell if your cat is hung over",or "Do cats go to heaven when they die"( my presonal favorite!), and "Can you catch something from a toilet seat used by your cat"...now there is a topic that has undoubtedly brought us all countless hours of concern...I could go on ad nauseum, as do Ms Cooper and Mr. noble, but methinks you get the gist of it...This book is clearly an insult to the intelligence of one and all, human or feline, lacking both whit and substance. My recomendation is : Don't even think about buying it...I am sorry that I did.
A truly useless and inane assortment of drivel! October 30, 1998 Let me start by saying that I love cat books; I have hundreds of 'em but, not this one...it is in the trash.This book is pathetic in its prosaic attempts at humor and the absurd questions it attempts to answer( "Do cats go to heaven when they die?",..."Should you stop smoking for your cat?", "Should you use catnip, too?", Etc., Etc. ad nauseam). Any one with education enough to read is too inteligent for this tiresome collection of rubbish. Don't waste your money or, heaven forbid, encourage the authors
A truly useful book on Cats April 9, 1998 I've read this book. It is a small book that is like a large encyclopedia, it contains humor, facts, 800 phone numbers, URL's, and even more. My cat has an annoying habit, from the book I learn that this behavior is just instinctive behavior. If someone were looking for a useful and fun gift for people that are cat-lovers... I strongly recommend this book. I'll be using it as Xmas presents this year for some of my friends here.
