Book Review of Cat Speak: How to Communicate With Cats by Learning Their Secret Language

Cat Speak: How to Communicate With Cats by Learning Their Secret Language
laurelyn avatar reviewed Cat Speak - might be useful for novice cat owners, but little new information on
Helpful Score: 3


I cannot wholeheartedly recommend this book. Author Bash Dibra is a little too impressed with his self-confessed triumphs in the world of dog training and a bit too pleased with how well his peculiar talents translate into the feline world. His case studies all seem to be resolved 100% immediately, no setbacks or false steps, which makes me imagine some highly selective editing has taken place.

If you have the good fortune to choose your cat's breed, parentage, and early socialization, this book may be enough for you. But if you have a cat who was formerly abused or neglected, or is simply more strong-willed than the average, you will find little help here.
