The Cat Whisperer: Why Cats Do What They Do--and How… Tekijä: Mieshelle Nagelschneider
I read this book in desperation because my son came home from college with a stray cat he'd adopted who was sweet but very wild. The author recounts lots of great stories, although I'm sorry to say that reading this did not turn me into a kitty wrangler.
Regardless of how much you know about cats, you will find some valuable insights into cat behavior and how to apply humane corrective measures to some of their their less desirable conduct. Lengthy treatment of how to get the new cat in the house interacting with existing cat residents. Also stresses the importance of methods in nurturing kittens in the vital early weeks of growth.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I first started reading this book, but as a cat lover I felt it was a must read. There are plenty of great tips and so much advice for us cat owners that it is difficult to pinpoint what I loved best.
I have to say I did not always agree with what the author had written on the subject, having been a cat owner all of my life I have found some techniques work brilliantly well, whereas the author definitely would never recommend them. But given her extensive research into this subject matter I would never say she is wrong, just that we have differing opinions.
I would highly recommend this book if you have never had a cat, or if you have a cat with problems. The advice contained within it will undoubtedly save you a lot of hard work and possibly heartache. This book is also an invaluable read for any cat lover out there, helping you to understand your feline friend a lot better and maybe even see the world through her eyes.
Recommended.

I love cats. I own two myself and was interested to read this book. I thought it was very basic. The author's approach to training cats all seem to involve pheromone sprays and plug-ins. I didn't find any of the information to be groundbreaking or revolutionary. The writing was a bit boring and slow paced. The introductory chapters were long and drawn out, while the chapters on changing a cats behavior were short and basic. Overall, I was not impressed.
