Summary: What a fun read!
Review: It is such a fun book to read. When I first read Hiss and Tell, I found myself laughing out loud at some of the situations Pam got into with some of her clients. And the other cool thing was that it was a learning experience. Every time I read one of Pam's books, I always find myself looking at my cats and their various behaviors with "new eyes". ~Jen

Summary: Meow tells it all
Review: Pam being a cat "shrink" - she has shared here a wonderful collection of stories from her adventures of helping owners understand their wonderful whiskered friends. I originally bought this book as a gift for my mother-in-law, but I fell in love with it and bought another for myself. Be prepared to laugh and yet - there is one story that you had better have a tissue box handy. Pam writes in a way you feel as though you've tagged right along with her and you can feel those kitty cats just wrap themselves around your heart. A must read for every cat lover.

Summary: Some amusing stories, but did she exaggerate them?
Review: Pam Johnson, self-taught cat psychologist, relates 13 true cases she has had to deal with oddly behaving cats (or their odd owners). She writes that it's usual for her to be entering the owner's window now rather than going through the front door. After you read through the cases, you'll understand why. A gentle giant cat usually extroverted happy cat suddenly hiding in corners, a cat that shreds printing paper, a cat that runs itself into the wall, the cat who gets violent on Sundays, a cat that overgrooms itself so much that it gets bald, a cat that hates one of its owners when she comes home after work, 3 heartwarming stories involving owners with their cats, etc. They're so funny, so entertaining, and makes you understand that we as humans are so ignorant as what it's like to be a cat and live in a cat's world. It would DEFINITELY be great as gifts to other cat loving friends even if you buy them used/out of print. I'll definitely be keeping it on my bookshelf with my other cat books.

Summary: Sixteen Cat Mysteries and Their Solutions
Review: Pam Johnson-Bennett is an expert on cat behavior and gives great advice on raising healthy, happy cats. But in this book, she relates sixteen cases of bizarre behavior by cats. We have a cat attacking its owner only on Sunday, or a cat carefully biting an owner's boyfriend in an embarrassing place, or a cat launching itself headfirst against a wall, or - well, you get the idea. Are these cats mentally unbalanced? No! Pam, the Sherlock Holmes of the cat world, uncovers the basis for each cat's strange behavior in sixteen entertaining mysteries. We cat owners know that cats actually behave in an amazingly logical fashion. It's cat owners that are mixed up, until our calculating cats train us to their satisfaction. This wonderfully-entertaining book illustrates these characteristics. Some of the stories are hilarious. One may bring tears to your eyes, but all of them will entertain you and are well worth reading.

Summary: Excellent advice for cat lovers
Review: Pam Johnson-Bennett offers excellent, common-sense advice for dealing with feline behavioral problems. The situations and solutions discussed in this book suggest that, no matter how bad your kitty's behavior, there is hope and light at the end of the tunnel. We humans just need to pay better attention to what our cat companions are telling us and to learn how to think like a cat. Johnson-Bennett is one of the best feline behaviorists around and this would be a great book to read if your cat has any issues. Highly recommended

Summary: Cute cat book
Review: This was a really cute book. The book is about a woman who is a cat 'psychologist' who visit people who are having problems with their cats. This book is great for any cat lover. I've had a cat for over 5 years now and even I learned a thing or two about her behavior. The book covers a number of different issues people were having with their cats. It's a fun read.
