Paul Gallico ; Suzanne Szasz. Misanthropy and cats. Can't get much better than that. Cats in were the same as cats today so this advice to felines everywhere is still relevant and useful.
It is dedicated to those moggies who want a cushy life being pampered by humans. Black and white photos of Kitty illustrate this delightful guide that any puss will be glad to get his or her paws on. As a human reader I'm rather sad to discover how much I am being manipulated by my unique four-legged companion but I still love her. Mar 05, Mary rated it it was ok Shelves: cat-books.
I expected something different. I wasn't anticipating the whole book to be written by "a cat" meant for other cats to read. It was mildly amusing at times, because I could relate as a cat owner. Overall, though, I had to force myself to keep reading the book just to finish it.
Jan 30, India Flanagan rated it it was ok. A cute concept and I thought this would be a great read but unfortunately it didn't quite hit the nail on the head it was close! The audiobook was read in a perfect 'cat' voice though! Feb 10, Clive F rated it really liked it. An account of life with humans, from the first-person perspective of a cat. Fluffy, charming stuff, that neither pretends nor aspires to be great art, but which will amuse the cat lover in your life.
Mar 01, John Moore rated it really liked it. A good book for men to read. Although it is presented as a book on how a cat takes over man's life, it is actually an allegory about how women take over men's lives. Nov 17, Maggie rated it it was ok. A friend recommended this book to me after I adopted a cat.
It was cute. I didn't read it cover to cover but jumped around and read several parts. It's a little dated with gender roles. Jun 29, Jessica Cockburn rated it it was amazing. A gorgeous portrait of cats and their humans. Paul Gallico seems to have seen right inside the mind of cats! Nov 02, Jill White rated it it was amazing Shelves: cats.
How unusual for a feline to reveal her secrets to us mere humans. Jan 14, Robin rated it liked it. I actually rated it 3. Aug 09, Cats Are Best rated it it was amazing. Maybe my favourite book ever. If you know a cat lover they need a copy but only get the original book with the original photos. Jul 18, Trina Nicholson rated it really liked it. I was given this book as a child, am now Beautiful photography. A must for all cat lovers. May 29, Janelle rated it really liked it Shelves: fiction.
This book was absolutely hilarious. It's written as if translated from a story the cat wrote as a guide to getting yourself adopted and taken in by humans.
She gives advice on kittens, Christmas, getting into the house, and keeping yourself ingratiated with humans of both genders. The book is illustrated with photos of the author herself along with witty captions as she describes her tactics. A must read for cat lovers. Mar 06, Dolly Anderson rated it liked it. I happen to have 3 cats currently, and in the past never really considered reading cat themed stories, so I have decided that I would check out all 5 books on her list this year and including the one she recently wrote "Cat Out of Hell" Sadly, according to the take out slip the library puts in books,it has been 11 years since anyone has read 'The Silent Miaow'.
He states that after a bit of deciphering he found it was an advice manual for cats. Yes, he does have a sense of humor One cat advising other cats! This book is clever, humorous, cute and a fun read at heart. What this book needs desperately however if an up to date facelift, the many photographs just date it as pure 's.
It simply takes away from what it could be. I could see this book with drawings to illustrate the story - somewhat like used in 'The diary of a Wimpy Kid' series of books. It could be made into an awesome kids movie or a show somewhat like the "Wishbone" series. So much potential to be rediscovered!!! My favorite chapter was "The Bachelor" here's a bit of an excerpt "I have not much to say on the subject of bachelors and if you decide to adopt one, I advise you first make a thorough study of his habits and personality and than make your decision.
