Publisher's Synopsis
Everyone has heard of horse whisperers and dog whisperers ... in fact, there are humans who claim to whisper to nearly any kind of animal you can think of. But humans are not the only ones who claim to whisper to other species. No, indeed. Surprisingly, cats claim to do it too, but they whisper to HUMANS! Unfortunately for the cats, too often humans are not sensitive and attuned to hearing and understanding what these cats are communicating."Tales of Cats Who Whisper to Humans" are the funny, touching, and uplifting stories of cats who used their natural, but sharply-honed, human-whispering abilities to influence chosen people to take them from the dangerous subsistence life of homelessness to loving homes. Yes, as they affirm, it is cats that choose humans, not the other way around.These true tales, which are transcribed word-for-word by a human cat-whisperer, the "author," show the many ways these cats "talked" to specific people to hopefully breakthrough the cognitive blockage to achieve their individual rescue-related goals.From the cats' own lips the reader learns how these felines interpreted each human's feelings, behaviors, and body language; how they used their own body language and thoughts to dynamite their way through to conscious awareness; how the humans responded to the cats' communication efforts, for good or ill; and how the cats then worked to foster the respect and affection required for their ongoing, mutually-beneficial human-cat relationships.Readers from 12 years old on will enjoy and learn from what these average cats, who happened to be homeless, had to do to convince the sometimes emotionally-deaf humans to snap out of their mindlessness, rescue them, and happily share their bed and board with them. Cat owners and ailurophiles will nod and smile as they identify immediately with these cats' techniques and their success.
