Is My Cat Crazy?
If only it were that simple! But the fact is that your cat is very sensible indeed—about cat things. She knows how to scratch upright surfaces, cough up hairballs, send messages with her pee, and party all night. To the feline mind, these are the stuff of everyday life—as important as sleeping all day and grooming for several hours using nothing but your tongue.
Your clever kitty knows you very well (after all, she sits and stares at you when you're in the bathroom). But how well do you know her? Find out why cats knead against us, the best way to hold a cat, how cats can jump onto your kitchen counters without even a running start, why they chew on your sweaters.
Award-winning pet experts Dr. Marty Becker and Gina Spadafori explain the ins and outs of the feline psyche. Because the better you understand cats, the easier it is to love the kitty on your couch. Can you teach an old cat new tricks? You bet! Expecting a baby? It's perfectly okay to keep your cat. What about kittens? You'll find everything you always wanted to know about feline sex but were afraid to ask.
Your cat's not crazy, but she can be mysterious. Did you know cats can tell time? They talk with their tails and walk on their toes. And there are even rumors that some cats are descendents of space aliens. It's no wonder the ancient Egyptians were not the only ones who worshipped them.
You'll also find the answers to questions that tend to tickle your curiosity: Why do cats' eyes glow in the dark? What's in catnip that makes kitties so silly? Can curiosity really kill a cat?
You've got questions? This book's got answers. Do cats always land on their feet? Find out!
A great cat book by Marty Becker, DVM, and Gina Spadafori.

Fun, facts on felines combine in fine new book
Some pet books educate, ponderously. Other pet books seek only to entertain. Rare to the point of non-existence is the pet book that entertains on every page, while sharing the best and most recent information available to help keep pets happier and healthier.
Into this rare class comes “Do Cats Always Land on Their Feet? 101 of the Most Perplexing Questions Answered About Feline Unfathomables, Medical Mysteries and Befuddling Behaviors” (HCI; $12.95). “Good Morning, America” veterinarian Dr. Marty Becker and pet-care columnist Gina Spadafori have dug deep into their files to draw out the most interesting of feline conundrums, and into their contact lists to find the experts to help provide the answer.
The result is an extraordinary little book every cat-lover must have, one perfectly timed as a gift for the feline fans on any holiday list.
The authors handle the material with obvious love for their subject and a sense of humor throughout. Whether writing about cat sex (nasty) or catnip (perfectly harmless), Dr. Becker and Ms. Spadafori have a charming way of providing information without seeming either dull or preachy. Lively tidbits of related information and personal stories such as Dr. Becker’s tale of clamoring up a tree after his stranded cat add spice to the mix.
Even the most devoted fan of all things feline will find a surprising fact or two (or more!) in “Do Cats Always Land on Their Feet?” And by way, the answer to the title question is: They’ll sure try to. But we’ll let Dr. Becker and Ms. Spadafori explain the rest.
The pair have also written a canine companion book, “Why Do Dogs Drink Out of the Toilet?: 101 of the Most Perplexing Questions Answered About Canine Conundrums, Medical Mysteries and Befuddling Behaviors.” It’s just as highly recommended. –Pethobbyist.com
