Aloof. Haughty. Disdainful. Withholding. Moody. Petulant. Imperious. Sound like anyone you know? It does if you own a cat. And while you've probably made hundreds of excuses about why your cat's this way, the sad fact is--your cat's just not that into you. Don't despair. It's not you. It's your cat. Cats invented not being into you. Richard Smith is here to explain, and help. Forlorn cat owners everywhere will see themselves in this book--in the "I Guess Her Mind Is on Other Things" excuse. In the "Maybe She Needs Her Own Space" excuse. In the "Maybe He Didn't Recognize Me in My New Hawaiian Shirt" excuse. They'll educate themselves about feline indifference through the Know Thy Kitty Quizzes. Test their cat's I.Q. Take the Schnapps-Porsche Well-Adjusted Cat Owner Analysis. Discover Ten Ways to Suck Up to Your Cat, including #2: leave affectionate Post-its in her kitty litter. In the tradition of All I Need to Know I Learned from My Cat (1.7 million copies in print), Kliban's Cat (985,000 copies in print), and even New York Timesbestseller Bad Cat (487,000 copies in print), Your Cat's Just Not That Into You is utterly loopy and yet dead-on wise--this is, after all, from the author of the classic Dieter's Guide to Weight Loss During Sex. It's filled with insights into the interior life of the world's most maddeningly mysterious animal, and into the damaged psyches of cat lovers who are so often given to wonder: Am I my cat's punk?… (más)

Anyone who has owned a cat should read thisl. ( )

This is meant to be a humourous look at cats. Much of it is set up in a letter “dear Abby” advice-type format, but there are other little snippets, as well. There were a few times I laughed out loud, but really not many. It wasn’t as amusing or enjoyable as I’d hoped, though I am still rating it “ok” (that may be generous). It was a quick read, at least.

A parody of "He's Just Not That Into You", Smith's offering aims to provide cat lovers with reason's why their fur ball doesn't give them the attention they desire. The book is presented in sections (based on kitty related issues) and set in a letter-to-the agony-aunt format, interspersed with fun quizzes and information pages. Great idea, but it fell a bit short of the mark for me. ( )

Entertaining satire on "He's just not that into you" with a cat twist. If your cat bosses you around you can call this a self help book. If you realize cats are not dogs then you will merely be entertained. ( )

This is a book for cat people, those who love cats, are owned by cats, or want to try to understand cats.

Divided into sections, Richard Smith makes a humorous attempt to help people understand cats. Some questions are posed to Richard, in which he addresses issues to the cat owner, including illustrations.

Issues range in topic. A common one is why cats seem to ignore their owners, or seem to "fake" interest. There are also questions regarding aggressive behaviour, why they do it and how it should be handled.

Richard helps with tips in making and keeping cats happy, though he wonders if cats ever can be. He tries to decipher if cats are ever really into you, or really just themselves.

The book offers quizzes, checklists, pledges, lists of rules, do's, don'ts, games, and advisories. Richard's book is humorous, fun and yet informative. His advice is realistic, practical, and useful, and his explanations are sensible. The illustrations are amusing, adding levity and enjoyment to the book. ( )
