A Manual for Kittens, Strays & Homeless Cats
'The Silent Miaow' is a book of instruction for kittens, strays and homeless cats based upon first-hand feline experience . . . how to win a way into a household, take over a family and achieve control over each member, how to select a family and what to look for, how to move in, how to establish total and unquestioned sovereignty over the most comfortable chair, how to obtain the choicest food, how to treat visitors, how to conduct a romance and how to pass all this wisdom on to the kittens.
There's some astute guidance on that most irresistible cat strategem, The Silent Miaow itself, and a wealth of illuminating observation of human behaviour for extra good measure.
Photographs by Jane Burton, whose photographs provide such delightful illustration for this unrivalled classic of the cat.
