Rating:  Summary: A Cat-Fest Of Laughs! Review: Anyone who likes funny things and cats will love this book. It is full of little stories and one liners and cartoons about cats and what they do, all amusing. Everything is done in black and white. My daughter, 10 years old, also found this book full of laughs. The only problem I had with this volume is that the binding along the spine became separated, but I recommend it anyway.
Rating:  Summary: A wonderful guide. Review: Don't you know that you don't have a cat? It's the cat who has you. Now, you have to keep your cat happy. Cat's are always picky, though. So, Stephen Baker has come up with a guide: How to Live With a Neurotic Cat. Cat owners and cat lovers alike, will love this book. My copy is bent and worn from everyone reading it. I could read it over and over again
Rating:  Summary: Funny, but short Review: I bought this book, wanting a funny read on cats. It's funny, and witty, but i found it short and with a lot of unnecessary drawings and sometimes just a few sentenses on a page.
Additionally, i found disturbing some of the oldfashioned views on animal treatment, like 'throwing a cat across the room' for something he did. Sure, it was said as comic relief, but still, as an aminal lover, i found it harsh.
Rating:  Summary: Absolutely hysterical Review: I loved this book. It tells the truth about living with a cat. A must for any cat lover.
Rating:  Summary: This book is to make YOU laugh, not your cat. Review: I've been watching my cat -- a breed both mixed and mixed-up -- for years. And he's been watching me. I finally couldn't help myself but put my observations between covers. I wish I could have done the same to my cat. But he is too fat for that. His name is Cat, a very good name, I think, for a cat. The book tells you everything you ever wanted to know -- or didn't want to know --about your four-legged wonder. There are chapters on training, amusing, sharing your sleeping quarters with, feeding,grooming and psychoanalyzing your cat. To give you a idea, I took it upon myself to quote a sentence or two right out of the book. To wit: "A recent census taken among cats shows that approximately 100 percent are neurotic. That estimate is probably on the low side." "Hunting instinct is a basic to a house cat as eating and sleeping or watching television." "Cat's greatest gift to the owner is that he lends you his presence. That should be more than enough." "Start training your cat at an early age. Cats get set in their ways while still young. Say, an hour or two after birth." "The best telephone directory to throw at your cat is the Manhattan White Pages (3.5 lbs.)". "On the average, cats require 24 hours of sleep a day. Some cats need more than that." "Cats need those calories. They may not move around as much as you do, but they expend a lot of energy when using their minds." "Have plenty of large towels handy when you bathe your cat. You will need them to dry yourself off." "If your dog and cat don't get along, talk to your dog. He is the only one who will listen." "Don't be alarmed if your cat seems abnormal. It's normal for cats to be that way." "Don't waste your money on professional psychiatric fees. You will need it for your own analysis." There is more --128 pages, to be exact. I hope you will enjoy the book. Just make sure your cat doesn't see it. Even if he is a slow reader --and some cats are -- he may get the message looking at the pictures.
Rating:  Summary: Awesome! conveys facts in a hilarious manner.... Review: If you own a cat you need this book. It is a book that makes you laugh out loud, and in addition to this humour it is VERY accurate. If you have a friend who has a new cat in their lives, send them this book. They will always appreciate it.

Rating:  Summary: The 1st book I read after graduating from university! Review: If you're a cat owner, you would find this book reviewing all your feelings (happy or unhappy) about cats. Then, after you've read this book, you would ask yourself: Your cat owns you or You own your cat? 'cause you finally understand know why you can't control the cat - cats are more superior than men. Actually, this is the first book I can finish after I graduated from university 4 years ago! Very interesting comics, thanks to Jackie Geyer. Humourous content, thanks to Stephen Baker. A must read for any cat lover (and also for those who want to 'own' a cat).
Rating:  Summary: Awesome! conveys facts in a hilarious manner.... Review: Mr Baker should be given an honerary Ph.D. in Veternary Science, specialization in cat psychology.
Rating:  Summary: An absolutely funny book. Review: There is no real way to describe this book other than laugh-out-loud funny. The great thing about this book is that it is not written by a doctor who wants you to feel the inner kitten within your cat. It is written by an author who is a cat owner, just like you and me. This book covers the sleeping, eating and everyday activities of a cat...in an unusual way. My favorite part is the outline of a cat's typical day. If that doesn't make you laugh, nothing ever will. I recommend this book for anyone who has ever owned and loved a cat.
