Meet evil Espresso, who likes to sink his teeth into houseguests; Hannah, who uses walls as scratching posts; and Spencer, who sneaks into showers.

A nationally known cat behavior consultant gets into the mind-set of misunderstood felines, proving that even the "craziest" cats are trainable.
Addresses litter box laments, clawing catastrophes, and more. Revised edition includes more than 35 new full-color photographs.
