If so, you\u2019re familiar with Jackson Galaxy, the cat whisperer, so to speak. However, he prefers to bill himself as a cat behaviorist. But his brand of help involves the cat\u2019s person, as well. He strives to help the owner meet the cat half-way. He says he tries to help people realize they don\u2019t own a cat, they\u2019re in a relationship with a cat and that we need to stop looking at the cat through dog-colored glasses.<\/p>\n<p>His new book is <strong><em>Total Cat Mojo, The Ultimate Guide to Life With Your Cat<\/em><\/strong>. He says that mojo is that inner confidence thing and that we\u2019re going to be disappointed in our cats if we have unrealistic expectations. We need to look at cats on their own terms\u2014recognizing the \u201craw\u201d in our cats.<\/p>\n<p>He says that sometimes we humans tend to overestimate our own worth with relationship to our cats. They don\u2019t think like we do, as much as we\u2019d like to believe that they do. So we need to learn not to look at cats through human-colored glasses as well. As Galaxy says, \u201cCats are who they are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Would love to publish your reviews of this book.
