"At last, a brilliant voice to give cats the recognition they
deserve. From feral cats outside an asylum, to pampered mother cats
giving birth in the warmth and safety of a home, Dr. Brown studies
her subjects with a fascination and delight that is contagious.
Tracing our relationship with cats all the way back to the Fertile
Crescent, The Hidden Language of Cats solves the mystery of how
their solitary predatory ancestors came to be such an important
part of our lives. The best book you will read this year."
*Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods, New York Times bestselling authors
of The Genius of Dogs*
"Cat advocates sometimes call themselves "the voice of the
voiceless," but the truth is cats express themselves very clearly;
we just have to know how to listen. The Hidden Language of Cats
decodes the underlying meaning behind the wide variety of ways cats
communicate with us, each other, and the world around them,
empowering readers to better understand and advocate for them. This
deep dive into cat language is a must have for any animal rescuer
or guardian who wants to increase their feline fluency!"
*Hannah "Kitten Lady" Shaw, bestselling author of Tiny But Mighty
and founder of Orphan Kitten Club*
"Purrs, hisses, meows, scents, scratches, ear tilts, tail flicks,
and head butts. Cats are wonderfully expressive across a variety of
modalities, even if their meaning isn't always clear to us. Sarah
Brown's delightful book will help you better understand what our
feline friends are trying to say, while appreciating how much
remains mysterious."
*Sean Carroll, Homewood Professor of Natural Philosophy at Johns
Hopkins and New York Times bestselling author of The Biggest Ideas
in the Universe*
"Every cat lover wishes they could understand what their cat is
thinking: This book will help you do just that! Sarah Brown
provides the reader with a highly-entertaining and evidence-based
guide to how cats communicate and how to have a better relationship
with the cat in your life. Every house cat wishes their owner would
read this book!"
