While we all know it's a fact that cats rule the household, there are many facts people don't know about their feline friends, and they're here for the revealing in this quirky compendium for cat-lovers (and those who tolerate them). Dr. Marty Becker and syndicated columnist Gina Spadafori, compile the best questions they've ever received from readers and fans to give people the skinny on things they've never dared to ask about cats but often wondered (or not) like: Is it true that cat sex lasts only three seconds? Do cats always land on their feet? Do cats have nine lives? Why do cats' claws detract? Whats the best way to give my cat medicine? Do cats need a good flashlight or can they see fine in the dark? Do feline feces have healing powers? Does my crazy aunt hold the record for the number of cats living in a single dwelling? Where did the term "cat's pajamas" come from? Does my cat nap too much? Is it true that cats are the only domestic animal whose penis points backwards? Why does a cat arch its back? What exactly is in that hairball my cat just coughed up? With an entertaining mix of laugh-out-loud humor and practical information, this is the perfect gift for any cat lover.
