What Cats Want

Straight from Japan’s top feline expert comes a delightful, practical, and irresistibly illustrated guide to understanding your cat’s every move.

Is your cat’s tail standing tall? That’s a friendly hello. Quivering? Pure joy. But if it’s swishing side to side like a furry metronome? Watch out—that’s a warning sign.

With 19 bones and 12 muscles, a cat’s tail is a master communicator, and What Cats Want helps decode the meaning behind every flick, curl, and swish. From quirky behaviors to surprising preferences—like their love for multiple water bowls and kitten-like play—this book reveals just how sophisticated (and misunderstood) our feline friends truly are.
