A bit outdated for 2012, but lots of solid information. I found the discussions of behavior particularly useful.

A lot of useless information. My cats don’t behave like any of the cats they describe. They don’t mind being picked up or petted on their bellies (by me, everyone else is another story, though they walk away rather than attacking). This seems to be a book for poorly behaved cats.

To BARDZO zła pozycja. Zawiera mnóstwo szkodliwych treści, technik awersyjnych, za pomocą których można tylko kotu zrobić krzywdę. NIE polecam.

There was a lot of great information in this book that I never knew about in all my years of owning cats. It explained a lot of behavoirs I always wondered about and gave insight on certain cat antics. Plus now I know how to get my cat to do tricks if I want to. :)

My cats now sit--how cool is that?
