Awards/获奖情况:作为猫咪的热爱人士和动物行为科学家,我对这本书感到非常欣喜。作者对话式的风格读起来倍感轻松。她带领我们体验了生活中的艰难时刻,描绘了宠物能够给我们带来的慰藉。蒂莉在被作者救助时是一只难搞的猫咪,但通过现代的行为纠正方法,她学会了信任人类。虽然有些老套,但我还是要说……阅读本书时,你会欢笑,会哭泣,也会学到很多。我给本书五颗星!——读者评论
As a fellow cat-fanatic and animal behaviour scientist, I was delighted with this book. Celia conversational style makes this an easy read. Taking us through a difficult time in her life, Celia illustrates the great comfort we can gain from out pets. Tilly was a troubled cat when she was rescued by the author, but through modern behavioural modification that is described so simply that we can all learn something from this book, she learns to trust a human. Here comes the cliche.....you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, but you’ll also learn. 5 stars!
