Most Helpful Customer Reviews


The best cat book I've ever read: funny and informative.
By A Customer on March 26, 1999
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I've read lots of pet books, and this is one of the most entertaining, right up there with Farley Mowat's "The Dog Who Wouldn't Be". It is very skillfully written, with wry humor and deep insight into the psychology of our feline cohabitants.


A great book for anyone even cat haters
By Constance D'Ulisse on August 16, 2003
Format: Paperback
Another wonderful book from one of my favorite authors. A must read if you live with moggies or are considering the adoption of one. This book made me laugh out loud reading about Boston Blackie (I've entertained thoughts of a hired killer a few times with my brood)and gave me chills while reading the chapters on the cat in history. I've bought copies of this book for cat loving friends and like all of Barbara Holland's books, a keeper.


Great Read
By A Customer on August 22, 2000
Format: Mass Market Paperback Verified Purchase
This was a wonderful book. It was entertaining and, at times, very, very funny. It was also very well-written - not just a silly cat-lovers book written in the language of the Simpleton. Holland writes beautifully and she is witty and clever. Anyone who has ever befriended a cat, and made one part of their lives, will truly enjoy this gem of a book.


Well Written
By Susie on March 21, 2000
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I found this little book to be very appreciative of cats in general. As an avid cat lore reader, I thoroughly enjoyed Ms. Holland's tracing of the cat in human history facinating and interesting. She also relates wonderful tales of cats which have shared her life. Any cat lover will find delight in every chapter.
