Dancing with Cats: From the Creators of the International Best Seller Why Cats Paint

The photographs of these cats are absolutely stunning and at the same time familiar to anyone who has ever been allowed by a cat to share its home. While the photography is the main draw of this book, don't stop by just looking at the pictures. To truly enjoy the genius of the book, one has to read the comments and interviews with the cat-dancers. From spiritual connection to psycho-babble to childish perceptions, the narration is a delight and a hoot to read. The book is an absolutely perfect parody, leaving the reader just enough convinced to scratch her head and think, "Is this for real?"

I have a weakness for cats, I admit that freely, and it leaves me predisposed to a book like "Dancing with Cats," which is crammed with photographs of cats (and their humans) leaping, stretching and "dancing" with abandon.Is the dancing real? Well, I don't knowm and judging by some of the other reviews, there is room for doubt...but I defy any cat to resist some of the visual stimuli directed towards the cats in this book (a swishing faux-"tail," scarves, etc.).Some of the new age psycho-babble spouted by the human subjects made my eyes glaze, so I ultimately chose to largely ignore the text and instead focus on the pictures themselves. Since the pictures, and not the text, are what made me buy the book in the first place, this was probably a wise move."Dancing with Cats" is a very enjoyable book, full of delightful photos that are sure to appeal to cat lovers everywhere.

Anyone who loves cats will just love this book. It is such great fun. I've spent a lifetime watching many cats play in such unforgettable ways, but I've never seen a cat book that had so much fun with playing with cats! Wild an Whacky! Great photography!

My cat was out of control, was getting into everything. I didn't know what to do. thought if I "fixed" it that would fix it. Nope... right after I got ahold of this great book and started dancing and working closely with my cat. I started to find out what was making her so angry and stressed out, now we are best of friends, and instead of being stressful to me she gives great amounts of soothing mediation. I recommend this book completely

Dancing With Cats is hilarious! The claim that the cats were tortured is kind of pushing it, especially considering that of the 4 cats I've had as pets in my life, 3 of them were prone to leaping out of 2nd story windows in hot pursuit of squirrels! I learned when I was still quite young that my cat loved it when I held her in my arms and twirled in circles. It was only a short while before we were actually dancing together-cheek to whisker-just like Fred and Ginger. I didn't think it could get any better than Why Cats Paint, but when I saw that this book was on its way, I danced for joy!Thank you Burton Silver and Heather Busch, for the wonderful photographs and the incredibly entertaining text!
