In most jobs, you're expected to work like a dog--show boundless enthusiasm for any dull and pointless task you're assigned; act thrilled with any meager reward that's tossed your way; play nice with other dogs; and never question the leader of the pack. For your own sanity, you need to wise up and end this ridiculous canine charade. Cats have it all figured out. They live by their own rules. They refuse to be ignored. They're self-assured and serene. This humorous book helps readers learn to work like a cat instead of a dog, urging readers to break free of the leash and leap up the workplace ladder.
Humorous look for all humans, owned by cats. However, since cats really don't do any work, they are probably as qualified as anyone else to write on the subject of work.
I pounced on this one!

How to Work Like a Cat by Karen Wormald is a refreshing and creative look at similarities between cats and coworkers! I bought a dozen and gave them to my feline loving coworkers, neighbors, family, and even my vet!!. It was a great hit. The writing is spectacular and the pictures are worth a thousand more words!

Up until now, we've only seen cats in business hanging onto a bar waiting for Friday to come. Karen Wormald's book sets the record straight by shining a positive light on feline philosophy. The book is full of wit and truth--the perfect gift for an office co-worker or a cat-loving friend or family member! When does the calendar come out? It would provide just the right decoration for my cubicle. And my dog of a boss would have to see it every day!

I'm tired of being the over-worked, enthusiastic "dog" of my company while other employees have all the time in world to flit the day away with talking sports, politics, sports, politics, sports, weather, sports... I've actually tried some of the methods Karen recommended in her new book this past week... and IT REALLY WORKS! Thanks Karen!
Great gift for all cat lovers and those who work like cats!

We loved this book, it contains funny insights to the workaday life and how 'working like a cat' can help you cope. I opened the book to the 'Hairballs are not meant to be kept inside' page and laughed out loud. This would make a great gift for any cat lover or just someone who works in the corporate world. It makes you think about whether you, 'work like a cat' or 'work like a dog'. This would make a great stocking stuffer!
