Galaxy knows cats: anyone who has ever seen his popular Animal Planet show My Cat from Hell or his web series "Cat Mojo" can attest to this. Here, he dispenses more of his feline wisdom in an accessible, in-depth guide to all things feline. Opening with an overview of thousands of years of cat evolution, Galaxy explains that the source of instinctive feline behaviors is an inner "raw cat." Finding and expressing this "rawness" is essential to the well-being of every pet cat. Galaxy combines science, psychology, and spot-on anecdotes to guide readers through every stage of life with their cat, from setting up the house to maximize cat-friendly spaces to addressing common problem behaviors. Throughout, the author emphasizes relationship-building between cat and guardian, encouraging readers to think of this experience as cat "parenting" rather than ownership. VERDICT This is a treasure trove of strategies for understanding and living in harmony with cats; Galaxy's many fans will be clamoring to get their hands on it.—Kelsy Peterson, Forest Hill Coll., Melbourne, Australia
