"So there we were, driving along with an earth-box, a bag of turkey and, squalling his head off on my knee in Sheba's basket, the new boy." The Toveys are no strangers to disaster, particularly the Siamese-related kind, but when their beloved Solomon dies unexpectedly, they're faced with a completely new type of problem - do they find another cat to replace the one they've lost?

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 14
The behaviour of a Siamese cat is never predictable, as all owners well know. The calm of the Tovey household is once again torn to shreds when Doreen's cat Seeley instantly loathes the new arrival, Shebalu, and she - all five inches of her - loathes him back. And then, even worse, they become firm friends, and team up to create havoc. The characters of 'Cats in the Belfry' return with a vengeance: Father Adams, Miss Wellington and Annabel the donkey.

House cats rule back alleys, deserted Antarctic islands, and our bedrooms. Clearly they own the Internet, where a viral cat video can easily be viewed upward of 10 million times. But how did cats accomplish global domination? Unlike dogs, they offer humans no practical benefit. The truth is they are sadly incompetent rat catchers and pose a threat to many ecosystems. Yet we love them still.

Couldn't Get Through It
Revisado: 09-20-17
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
It drags and drags . . . if cats themselves were as uninteresting as this book, they wouldn't have survived until now!! I only wish I had read the Amazon reviews BEFORE I bought this. I had purchased it after seeing the documentary, thinking it would be along those lines. NOT.
What was most disappointing about Abigail Tucker’s story?
TOO academic.
What didn’t you like about Arden Hammersmith’s performance?
Dry. Dull. Droned on and on.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment. Wish I hadn't bought it.
Any additional comments?
Should be classified as an academic textbook.

Cats have been popular household pets for thousands of years, and their numbers only continue to rise. Today there are three cats for every dog on the planet, and yet cats remain more mysterious, even to their most adoring owners. In Cat Sense, renowned anthrozoologist John Bradshaw takes us further into the mind of the domestic cat than ever before, using cutting-edge scientific research to explain the true nature - and needs - of our feline friends. Tracing the cat’s evolution from solitary hunter to domesticated companion, Bradshaw shows that cats remain independent, predatory, and wary of social contact.

LIKE READING THE ENCYCLOPEDIA
Revisado: 05-15-17
What did you like best about Cat Sense? What did you like least?
Good information. Good for reference material, but not accessible. You have to go through the whole thing if you're only looking for one problem.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Street Cat Bob
What didn’t you like about Graeme Malcolm’s performance?
Droned. But what can you do with the encylopedia?
Was Cat Sense worth the listening time?
Not really
Any additional comments?
I couldn't get through it because it was so dry.
