This book is informative. It also contains some unique point of view. The reason I only rate it as 4 stars is, I prefer a more human touch (sensation, humor) on cat topic books.

Unique Information, Great Photos, Very Informative

Roger Tabor is a renowned cat expert. He has often been featured on PBS. In fact, that is why I bought the book. I pride myself as a cat expert, but there are things in this book I never knew about cats. One important fact - if you pet a cat too much they might nip you. Often cats gets sent to shelters because they are misunderstood. This book will help people understand cats better. Great Book, Great photos.
