Wild, feral cats are not neurotic - they are cautious and one with nature. Domesticated cats, those that allow us to live with them are neurotic because even after all this time, we still don't get IT. They are not our pets, they are co-habitators, and therefore should be treated with respect. Unlike many other co-habitators, they will not take out the rubbish for pocket money or, sex - depending upon the relationship, No, cats will reinforce your orders that the rubbish must go out at night, or before you all leave the house, because come the morning, or everyone returning from work/school, that rubbish may very well be relocated and it's not the cat's fault. The cat(s) are simply showing support for a family member obviously under stress. This little treatise shows you how to rethink your understanding of your cat's behaviour, whilst changing your own to benefit all of the household - it is recommended to read out a chapter at the dinner table to all the family just to reinforce the lesson. ( ) A short, humorous book about neurotic cats -- "A recent census among cats shows that approximately 100 percent are neurotic. That estimate is probably on the low side." -- and how to live with them, presented in words and cartoons. The humor is a bit uneven, but it gave me a few chuckles. I do believe that great advances in the field of cat-based humor have been made since this was published in1985, though. no reviews | add a review
Cat owners know the truth: cats, in fact, own them and their feline needs must be met—sooner rather than later. In this delightfully irreverent book, highlighted by Jackie Geyer's evocative illustrations, the author of the highly successful,How to Live with a Neurotic Dog, offers coping mechanisms for those who struggle with the endless task of keeping their cats pampered and therefore happy.
