### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A must-have for the person who wants to acquire a cat companion
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 8, 2008*

Rubbing against your legs. Does this action show (a) her affection for you, (b) that she is rubbing her scent onto you and making a community smell, or (c) first b, than a. Of course, by the wording of the question, you can guess that both answers are correct and, in fact, transferring her smell to you is the prominent action. That is the basic premise of "What is my cat thinking?: The essential guide to understanding pet behavior." Cats have a powerful sense of smell which often guides their behavior.In addition to this fact, the book provides other useful information in learning how to interact with your cat. For example, most cats do not like to be stroked on their tummies--too vulnerable! They don't like to be stared at. They know how to train you to give them food.Other really nice features include:1. Wonderful color photos on every page! In fact, three per page is not uncommon. Each photo illustrates the behavior described in the accompanying paragraph.2. Good quality paper is used, the semi-glossy kind. The cover is plasticized, making it more durable. The book is slightly over-sized, 9 1/2 high and 6 3/4 wide.3. A huge variety of topics is covered from cats as Social Animals with subsets of becoming sociable to Territory to Fitness and Hunting to People and Cats. Safety for cats and The Next Generation complete the topics.I tend to agree with other reviewers that this book was written more for the person about to acquire a cat than for the long-time cat person. However, I did learn some rather interesting things that I should have known. For example, cats do not like to be stared at because staring is one of their aggressive behaviors toward other cats who threaten their space. They don't like to be picked up by people they don't know.This is probably the most important fact to know if you are looking for a cat to live with you--A cat who was well-treated as a kitten will be the best candidate as a pet.After reading the book, I bought another copy to place in my school library (where I am librarian). Children will love this book, as will adults wanting to know more about cats and their unique behaviors.

    It is always wise to gather information about cats...and entertaining.

It will be a Christmas present for a friend and I will likely get another for a family member.

    A must for cat people!
  

*by L***J on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 23, 2009*

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!
