Summary: What a wonderful approach!!!!!
Review: Alexandra Sellers has devoted most of her life to deciphering the mysterious and complicated cat language that - until now - only those mysterious felines have been able to use.I am heartbroken at a certain review in which one user mentions "200 pages of garbage", "stupid pronunciation guide", and conveys a feeling of cats being animals with no language and a book by a fruitcake who wants money. This is the wrong approach to this book. I have tested Sellers' theories by giving phrases to my cats. Their ears perk up, they always respond, and I know they understand. If you are a firm believer, as am I, that cats deserve to have their mysterious language recognized, I recommend this book over any. I got it for X-mas and I hope to become fluent. I guarantee you will find familiar cat phrases in a couple of days. While the idea of a "cat language" seems stupid to some, and the notion that animals can speak may seem outrageous to you, cat lovers know that these creatures have a language not until a few years ago deciphered by the author. But Sellers, through many, many, many, many, many years of research has found patterns that should not be undermined as "stupid" or "nonsense". If you have faith in human-to-feline communication, you cannot give into this cynicism, bigotry and criticism of a woman's lifetime work. She has written other books on Cat, and has studied 7 major human languages. So why would we be so much more critical of her than of the Horse Whisperer? She, like he, has worked very hard and very long, not to create 200 pages of garbage, an elaborate joke, but to give what she has learned about Cat to the world. Bottom line: if you don't give in to the jaded cynicism of people who say cats are stupid and can't talk, please, please, please consider buying How to Speak Cat. You will not be disappointed.

Review: Finally! A comprehensive compilation of what we knew all along - that a cat's language is as unique and complex as their "personalities". Kudos to Sellers for breaking the code and allowing us to communicate more effectively with our beloved feline friends. Would have given the book 5 stars, if Sellers had dealt with the section on the subordinate connector more thoroughly. But still a great effort overall. ma' RRow (translated "I am blessed")

Review: I was introduced to this book while vacationing in London. I saw Sellers on some tv show 'talking' to a cat. Since I have 5 cats in my apartment, I found her claim she had learned Cat very interesting. Upon embarking on this book, I had to wonder "Is she serious?!?!" Though I enjoyed the fact that there might actually be a Cat language, this book had me in hysterics. Cat lullabys, Cat apologies, Cat lies, a Cat God? Come on! Sure, I tried it out on each of the cats in my life and each time I was met with a look that said, "What? Have you gone completely crazy?!?!"
