Live Like Your Cat is a delightful, witty and endearing look at our feline friend. It reveals how much more successful humans would be if only we lived more like our cats.
Take a closer look at your cat--that delightful, witty, and endearing little friend--after reading these amusing observations. This book reveals how much more successful humans would be if only we lived more like our cats. It's a light-hearted celebration of the domestic cat's rise to "top dog" status in modern society. His light-hearted journey through feline physiology and behaviour, popular culture, and folklore reveals the advantages of being a cat in modern society and how, as owners, we can adapt these attributes to our own daily lives. Cats have it far better than humans--they accept their status and live within their limitations. For centuries, dogs were ahead in the pecking order. But the cat was just biding its time. Within a few short generations, those crafty kitties have snuck up the inside and taken control of the household. This wonderful collection of witty observations contains charming cartoons and illustrations by Louise Tate. There are interesting insights--filled with plenty of "I didn't know that" facts--making this an uplifting, moving, and inspiring book, perfect as a gift for all cat lovers.

Ian Valentine grew up on a Perthshire farm alongside several marmalade toms. He began his writing career as a magazine journalist, contributing lifestyle features to a wide range of publications including The Daily Telegraph, Country Life, GQ, and The Field. His previous books are on the Olympics, cricket, football and country sports and for Quiller, Out for a Duck. Louise Tate has scribbled, scrawled and painted ever since she could wield a pencil and brush. She studied Zoology and Illustration at degree level, lived in the most amazing places (including the US) and has since been highly commended in the Macmillan prize for Children's illustration four times in three years. She has also had work selected for the Illustrators Showcase exhibition in London in 2013.
