Product Description
If you think you're having problems with your cat, well, how do you think your cat feels about you? That's why Sparkle, a sharp Somali kitty, started her advice column-to help distressed felines deal with the problems that their humans couldn't solve (or perhaps caused in the first place). Whether it's food stealing, territorial disputes, or toy trouble, Dear Sparkle: Advice from One Cat to Another answers each meow for help in true cat-to-cat fashion...but if a human wants to read it, we won't tell! Winner, Hollywood Book Festival, Wild Card Category Honorable Mention, New York Book Festival "Sparkle is most definitely the Dear Abby of the feline world." -Quasi, author of The World Is Your Litter Box

The perfect gift for your favorite cat owner, May 25 2010
By Dr Cathy Goodwin - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dear Sparkle: Advice from One Cat to Another (Paperback)
My cat Ophelia says, "This book is purr-fect for cat owners. When I got adopted I knew I had to take charge immediately. I refused to be dominated by the other cat (a ditzy Calico appropriately named Creampuff) and a medium sized, mixed-breed dog named Gracie. Well, I could have written this book. When I got sick, I followed Sparkle's advice on taking medicine. I am now Top Cat in the household."As someone who is owned by two cats, I would add, This book is well-written and fun. It's not cutesy and silly, as I would have expected. Just don't let the cats read it themselves.

Solid advice and humor - a winning combination, Jan 31 2010
By Ingrid King - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dear Sparkle: Advice from One Cat to Another (Paperback)
There are lots of books on the market that give advice on how to care for cats, provide information on cat behavior, and address other aspects of living with a cat. This book is unique in this genre. It combines solid advice with humor, and gives us an insider's look into what and how cats think. Sparkle is a seven-year-old pedigreed Somali who speaks out on anything from how to address trouble with family members (both human and feline) to hairballs to culinary delights and disappointments. A significant portion of the book is devoted to addressing questions about human foibles. Writes Sparkle: "Humans are complicated beings, and very hard to train."Sparkle, the internet's premier cat-to-cat advice columnist, brings her feline point of view to help her fellow cats figure out human behavior and deal with the day-to-day frustrations that living with humans can bring for a cat.
Some samples of the kinds of questions Sparkle answers are:
My human used to give me treats at dinnertime, but the vet put me on a diet and now I'm starving! How do I get these treats back?
A tom cat invaded my backyard and now my roommate hates my guts! What happened, and what do I do about it?
My human brought home a snotty new kitten - how do I show him who's boss?
This is a thoroughly enjoyable, often laugh out loud funny book filled with practical information presented in a unique style.
