This book is hilarious at times. The title is spectacular: I mean, a self-help book for cats, come on! :)
I enjoyed the illustrations, I liked the format (the various quizzes and stuff). My favourite part remains the first chapter.
If you are looking for a fun, easy read, that´s the book for you! You might feel the need to update your résumé afterwards, because it has a whole lot of corporate tools.

Funny, quick read. Some of this really sounds like our cats.

Too funny! This woman somehow must have met my cat! She has him pegged completely. A must read for cat people (not owners--dogs have owners, cats have staff!)

I do hope cats don't need this. If you have to think of ways to be cool, you're not cool.
It was somewhat funny though.

The book does a fairly good job of satirizing the the various self-help books and themes that have come out over the last 20(?) years. Nice application to how a cat might look at the concepts in these books.
