Publisher's Weekly
An English import, this title purports to be a ''translation'' from a manuscript prepared by the author's cat, George, and directed to other cats. The style is deadpan (''There are millions of humans just waiting to pamper us with gourmet food, indoor sanitation, and professional medical care. It's absurd not to take advantage of the situation''). Subjects include ''learning the human language,'' ''how to dominate dogs'' and ''special advice for male cats.'' Jolliffe's drawings are energetic, and the book should appeal to those predisposed to felines.
