Dr. Jordan Carlton Schaul, Ph.D., contributing editor, National Geographic, and past curator, Orange County Zoo, “The reason people are so mesmerized by house cats is because they are truly miniature versions of lions, tigers, and leopards. In her book, Mieshelle Nagelschneider explains the behavior of the house cat in an unprecedented and most accessible way, offering unique insight into the often misunderstood companion animal that is as wild as we have become civilized.”
