Although this book is now quite old it has lost none of it's ascerbic wit. And it is wit with a dark, naughty and twisted edge which does not have to work hard to illustrate it's point, it does exactly what you would expect of the title and why would you look if you felt as though you would be offended?
I believe this kind of base, juvenille humour is needed by us all at time's. The hilarity of the forbidden and taboo subject is intensely and achingly funny sometimes. Surely everyone remembers wanting to howl with laughter when being heftily scalded as a child?
To ignore we have such base instincts is to deny being human and assume superiorty over ones peers, quite hilarious in itself really, it is afterall, JUST A BOOK!
This book is wickedly funny and a huge "pick-me-up" with no real malice intended! To the book's detractors and disapprovers I say, Lighten up folks! NO ACTUAL CATS WERE HURT IN THE MAKING OF THE BOOK!!

I hate this book. And not because I love cats. I do not. But because this book is not funny. Period. This book is little more than sloppy cartoons and one formula replicated 50 times. It lacks humor and satire. The book may have been provocative 25 years ago, but today it is vacuous and inane.

I am a cat lover and although I laughed at a few of the cartoons I can see where a child would find this book hysterical! I would recommend it for kids!
