A must for cat people!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I absolutely love this book! I received it as a gift a couple of years ago and have gone back to it again and again, even though I have shared my life with cats for over thirty years. When I adopted a pair of two year old cats last year, I pulled it out again looking for guidance in making them a part of our family. This book shows many aspects of cat behavior using pictures with relatively little text, allowing the reader to be able to learn to interpret their own pet's actions by seeing different behaviors, moods and interactions caught in the remarkable photographs. I liked it so well I recently bought a copy for a friend who had never had a cat before and adopted one last year. It seemed a good way to answer all those questions about - well - "what's he thinking?". Of course it's impossible to know that for sure, but this book will take you pretty close. A slim book with no long passages of boring text, this book should be good for cat lover's of all ages and would make an excellent gift for new cat "owners". Scattered throughout are little "dialogue boxes" of text asking "Did you know?" with many bits of information I actually didn't know! Five stars all round!

Not a Bad Little Book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
The author seems to know her stuff. The book has an excellent lay out. Lots of pictures, easy to navigate, wonderful index, sort of like a FAQ on cat behavior. Everyone from the novice to experienced cat owner is likely to learn something about the subject. The subject itself is a little bland. Before you cat lovers all get upset about this remark, let me explain. According to Bailey the majority of cat behavior is rather simple, basic needs for safety, exploration, food, etc. Cat behavior is also rather simple: tail up or down, rub off scent, etc. This makes portions of the book repetitious. This is not a complaint. It is better to be truthful and a little bland than to invent a bunch of human response and lay those on the cat. All in all it's a good book and worth owning. Cat owners won't be disappointed.
