Review
Now this is something else! This book (subtitled A manual for kittens, strays and homeless cats) claims to have been written in the original feline, and translated by Paul Gallico. It is a book of instruction for cats, to tell them how to train their families. There are many black-and-white photographs by Suzanne Szasz. An absolute must if you own a cat!

Availability
Not difficult to find. There was also a paperback version published in Britain by Pan, with colour photos by Jane Burton. The photos are lovely, but do not fit anywhere near as well with the manual as do the originals.
