Book Description

Just when you thought you knew all there was to know about cats comes the ultimate—and unexpected—guide to taking your cat into the wild. Here are cats walking on a leash. Cats hiking on a leash. Cats tramping through snow. Cats camping. Cats kayaking, canoeing, even surfing—yes, cats who love water. When animal writer and active hiker Laura Moss couldn’t find an online resource for hitting the trail with her cat, she created one. AdventureCats.org took off like wildfire, with attention from Wired, the Huffington Post, Outside magazine, BuzzFeed, and much more. Now, the book Adventure Cats—a collection of jaw-dropping photographs, inspiring stories of real-life cats, and all the how-to a cat owner needs—will take readers and their cats well beyond the backyard. Learn how to leash-train a cat. What to do if you encounter wildlife on the trail. Plus, winter safety tips, and how to bring a little bit of the outdoors to an indoor cat. The stories themselves are catnip for animal lovers, from Nanakuli, the one-eyed cat who hangs ten; to Georgie, a four-year-old gray tabby who lives on a sailboat; to Quandary, who not only insists on hiking with her family but also teaches them a valuable lesson: When you follow your cat’s natural tendency to wander, you experience the outdoors at a slower, richer pace. This book will delight every cat person, regardless of whether their pet is inclined to adventure. (Take the quiz at the beginning of the book to find out!)

At some point in life everyone is compelled to ask the primordial question -- Why am I here? How we answer that question determines whether or not we will discover our true calling in life and harness our full professional, personal, and spiritual potential. Many counterfeit voices will offer an answer, but the one true voice whispers from the inside. Cats Don't Bark provides powerful techniques to help the reader listen for the "One Voice" and find the courage to follow it. This is a book about discovering who we are, accepting who we are not, and cultivating the habits we need to discover and embrace who we were meant to be.

Book Description

Cats have played an important role in human life for thousands of years and have been loyal friends, protectors and inspirations since they were first domesticated. With their intelligence, mysterious nature and cuteness, they offer countless benefits to humans, both physically and spiritually. Cats relieve feelings of loneliness, reduce stress and help release happiness hormones. They also help children develop empathy and learn values such as love. Cats, like people, have their own personalities, freedoms and problems. They need proper care, nutrition and education to lead a healthy and happy life. Cats may have different needs depending on their age, sex, breed and character. Therefore, meeting their needs in the right way is of great importance for their physical and mental health. This book provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive information on cat breeds, care, nutrition, psychology and training. Packed with information based on scientific research, expert opinion, and the authors' professional experience, it will help you build a deeper bond with your cat, better understand its needs, and give it a better quality of life. It also includes practical solutions to common problems that cats often face. By reading this book, you can get to know your cat's behavior, breed and personality better, spend more fun and productive time with her, and strengthen your bond. We hope you enjoy reading this book, which will take your relationship with your cat to a new level.

Book Description

“Hilarious . . . If you’ve ever woken up with a cat staring right at you, or been joined on bathroom breaks by your feline friend, then you’ll understand.” —Awesome Inventions From the creative duo behind the bestselling Me Without You and Happiness Is . . . comes How to Be a Cat, a lighthearted illustrated guide to living life as a feline. Distinctive artwork and quirky captions confirm what we already know: cats actually rule the household. Ranging from simple truisms (“Look cute enough to attract cuddles”) to perceptive observations (“Consider life a never-ending belly rub”), this charming book is a must-have gift for anyone who shares their life with a feline friend (or vice versa). “It lists many of the intricate behaviors that distinguish a real cat from what I assume are cheap cat knock-offs (like ‘kat’ or ‘cot’). Do you lick your humans at 3am? Do you ask for attention, then wriggle away once they pick you up? Then you’re well on the way of being a real, certified cat.” —deMilked “An easy to follow ‘how to guide’ available for anyone dreaming of being a kitty cat instead of a real-world adult, or kid.” —Earth Porm

This book is his most comprehensive guide yet to cat behavior and basic cat care, rooted in understanding cats better.
