Summary: Still in print after all these years...
Comment: Wow! I can't believe this book is still in print! I was 13 years old when the book was initially published. This book is perfect for any 13-year-old boys, cat lovers, or cat haters on your gift list.

Summary: Not for those with no sense of humor
Comment: I first encountered "101 Uses for a Dead Cat" about 20 years ago. Every page produced at least a chuckle and a good many guffaws. These are humorously drawn cartoons without captions -- and they're as absurd as they're meant to be. Of course, no one in real life is going to use a dead cat for any purpose whatever, but given how seriously some cat lovers take their cats -- and the nature of the housecat -- the premise itself is funny. One of those premises, by the way, is that in these 101 absurd cartoons, cats appear to be of more usefulness dead than alive.
I know a lot of cat owners who think this book is hilarious precisely because they love their cats despite the fact that, in many ways, their cats are frequently annoying, destructive, selfish, demanding and high maintenance.
At any rate, I'm always amused when I find people who take this book so seriously they don't see the humor in it, much like vegetarians who go out to dinner with friends and then are obnoxious about the meat or fish other people are eating.

Summary: Not Very Funny
Comment: My wife bought this book thinking that it would be funny: we were both disappointed. The cartoons in this book have little thought and seem sensless in their aim. Not having any prejudice against dogs or cats, this book comes off as sick rather than funny. Perhaps this is Mr. Bond's answer to 101 Reasons Why Cats Are Better Than Men.
This may be a great book for people who are prejudiced against cats but for people who find cats interesting and lovable animals, go somewhere else.
