This book is old fashioned. I didnt find it informative as I expected, certainly not about different breeds. It has tales of cats but it's just boring. This is really saying something since anyone who knows me knows I'm a huge cat lover. I think it's written in the time when we were known (more than now) for having a 'stiff upper lip'. I can recommend much better factual and funnier true cat books and fiction books (eg those by Deric Longden, Tom Cox and one named 'Stray').

Oddly, no mention of catnip.
