Description

The internationally bestselling book of tongue-in-cheek poetry that set off a trend of feline funniness! Animal lovers will laugh out loud at the quirkiness of their feline friends with these insightful and curious poems from the singular minds of funny cats. The author of the internationally syndicated comic strip Sally Forth helps cats unlock their creative potential and explain their odd behavior to ignorant humans. With titles like "Who Is That on Your Lap?," "This Is My Chair," "Kneel Before Me," "Nudge," and "Some of My Best Friends Are Dogs," the poems collected in I Could Pee on This perfectly capture the inner workings of the cat psyche. With photos of the cat "authors" throughout, this whimsical poetry book reveals kitties at their wackiest and most exasperating (but always lovable). IDEAL CAT GIFT FOR CAT LOVERS: For that "crazy cat lady" or "cat mom/dad" in your life, this collection of poems makes for the perfect cat-themed gift for anyone who's obsessed with their pet. COMIC GEMS FOR ADULTS: The sublimely funny jokes within these poems will appeal to men and women of all ages but some of the kitty authors' language may be a bit salty for kids.

    • Fun silly poems for people of all ages who have a sense of humor and love cats.
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book to read to the residents of a small ALF where I do volunteer work. They loved the silly cat poems so much, that one resident asked me to read it again about a month later.

    • small hardcover, glossy pics, charming & funny poems, nice addition to a gift basket
Format: Hardcover
Super cute, totally worth it for the chuckle. I bought this for a friend as part of an upcoming Christmas gift. I didnt fully open the book as I didnt want to crack the spine (its a fresh book!), but I took a peek and could make out some of the poems. Just charming. Small hardcover, makes a nice little coffee table book, bathroom book, part of a gift, would be pleasant as a get well gift as it is sure to bring on some good feels. To reiterate: this is a small book at 5" x 6", and is just 112 pages. Not 112 poems. I dont know how many. Lots of glossy pics. Was able to buy it at less than $10, so I figured that was a decent price for a gift. I had originally put this in a "list" several years ago, but it was much too pricy at the time. A good greeting card can easily be $5-9 these days, so I will be using this in a sense as a card. As in, I will jot a little note inside when I tuck this in among other things in the gift. ... show more

    • I could pee on this book, it's so good.
Format: Hardcover
I could not love this book of poems more. Freaking hilarious. My kids have read it aloud repeatedly to anyone who will listen, and they quote it often. I love the CAT ANGST, and I love that it reads like traditional poetry (not like limericks) only from the perspective of cats. It's absolute perfection. I could say "purr-fection," but I'm not a dork. ... show more

    • Catzilla Responds
Format: Hardcover
Review Image by Andy & Ari
Mr. Marciuliano, Catzilla would like to have a word with you. See that "Say What? You're kidding me!" look on his face in this picture? He wants to talk to you about your poem, "One Day." He says, "you may be funny, and you may know a few things about cats, but let me tell you. You are right that we are not equal, but every feline knows who's really in command, and we don't need to wear the pair of your slacks we just peed on to prove it. And seeing as we can reduce you silly humans to a pile of gibberish with a nonstop flood of puddles or aromatic piles, the people who feed us will *never* be our equals, and we cats know who's really in command here." So, Catzilla's comments aside, because yah, he totally wears the Emperor's hat in this house, and should we ever doubt it, he sends his sidekick, Sith Whispicus out to reinforce his demands...this is a funny book, if you've ever had a cat with a touch of the spiteful in him. Cough *Catzilla*. And mostly, I think the author gets it right. I bought this book for my daughter, but I did some reading myself when it came in today because when I had looked at the on-line preview, it made me laugh. And I always like a good laugh. I do have to say though, my favorite cat humor book remains "A Cat's Night Before Christmas," by Beard/Jones/Boswell. It used to leave me gasping for air every time I read it, until it became my daughter's favorite book as a toddler. And we read it over, and over, and over because that's what toddler's do. And being able to quote it from memory allows me to breath when it's read, but I can still smile when thinking about it. So that's a good one to try too, and very on point if you're a cat owner. But otherwise, I thought this one was funny in a more artsy kind of way, and I know my daughter is going to love reading it as well. ... show more

Format: Hardcover
My kiddo, now seventeen, has never taken to poetry. I had Shel Silverstein and later, I fell in love all over again with Emily Dickinson. This collection made my daughter laugh. She loves reading her favorites aloud for our family. It’s been a sneaky way to prepare her for the ACT as it’s fun to discuss explications and figurative language. Its beautiful and well worth buying. ... show more

We have shared our home with from one to three cats at a time for over 50 years so the poems in this book brought a welcome smile to my face!
