Kliban's \u003ci\u003eCat\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAll I Need to Know I Learned from My Cat\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBad Cat\u003c\/i\u003e, comes a new book that answers the question all cat lovers ask: How do I make my cat like me? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e97 Ways to Make a Cat Like You\u003c\/i\u003e is the perfect interactive guide to these mysterious, fickle, seemingly aloof--yet really, just particular--pets. Paired with a full-color photograph of friendly, extroverted, happy cats (in case you've forgotten what a cat looks like when he \"likes\" you), the 97 inspired, occasionally silly but always behaviorally-based tips and tricks prove that when a cat is treated right, he or she will respond in kind. Within reason. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e There's the \"Eye on the Ball\"--record a tennis match or a Ping-Pong game on TV to play back for your cat when he needs a bit of exercise. \"Cat Burrito\"--wrap your cat in a towel, burrito-style, which is particularly good for anxious pets or trips to the vet. The \"Boing, Boing \"--wind pipe cleaners around a pencil in a spiral shape to create springs. Carefully slide off the pencil so the spirals go \"boing\" when pressed. The classic \"Tickle, Tickle\"--tickle Kitty under her chin and softly say \"gitchy, gitchy, gitchy\" in your highest-pitched voice. And for the cat owner willing to go the distance, the \"There's No Business Like Show Business\"--practice your best Ethel Merman by belting out favorite show tunes for your cat. Kitty won't care if you're off-key and she'll enjoy the stimulation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKaufmann, Carol:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Carol Kaufmann is the author of \u003ci\u003e97 Ways to Make a Cat Like You\u003c\/i\u003e and co-author of the bestselling Photicular books \u003ci\u003eSafari\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOcean\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003ePolar \u003c\/i\u003e(Oct. 2015).
