Has domestication been good for cats? Now kept indoors under the pretense of safety, most cats curl up on the couch for hours at a stretch, eat of couple times, make the most of the litter box, and call it a day. Because of this sedentary lifestyle, the average feline today uses a mere two to three of its nine lives. Cats may be living longer, but are they living less? The Devious Book for Cats will help today's felines uncover the wild, unrestrained joys hidden within the pampered lives they deserve. It explains the natural allure of empty cardboard boxes, demythologizes the superstition of the black cat, and provides tips on effective napping. It also tells a cat what to do when stuck up in a tree, how to hunt wild game, and how to stare like a pro. More than a practical information guide, The Devious Book for Cats is a book that can help today's cat reclaim a heritage befitting creatures whom the ancients revered as gods.
