From the top feline doctor in Japan comes a fun, practical, adorably illustrated "cat-to-human" translation guide to decoding your cat's feelings.

Ever wondered if your cat actually enjoys it when you pet her, or if she's just tolerating you because you'll feed her later? What she is thinking when she pounces for a fluffy toy on a string? Why she absolutely must squish herself into any box, drawer, or seemingly too-small space? The answers to these questions--and more--can be uncovered in this absolutely essential book about how to read your cat's feelings, written by a top feline expert. This "cat-to-human" translation guide is super-fun and packed to the brim with helpful knowledge for cat owners.
With revealing insights and appealing illustrations, What Cats Want provides a much-desired glimpse into the minds of our most mysterious pets.

"In Japan's rarified world of cat doctors, the vet Hattori is very much a superstar--but now there is a chance for English-speaking feline fans to benefit from his wisdom thanks to What Cats Want." --The Observer
"Essential for any cat lover . . . this book will go above and beyond your questions . . . like any relationship, a level of understanding can build happiness and trust, and this book is a great tool to enhance this between you and your cat." --How It Works
"This handy guide from veterinarian and feline-behavior specialist Hattori, of the Tokyo Cat Clinic, will help cat owners better know their pets, with both surprising facts (injured cats may use purring to hasten the healing process) and hilarious realness ("Cats often ignore their owners' call simply because they're not interested"). . . . A very appealing, beyond-the-basic reference." --Booklist
