Does your cat come when you call, make sounds upon request, play fetch, or open doors? Thousands of cat owners may swear that their felines are, in fact, too smart to perform on command, but if you want to measure your pet’s intelligence anyway, this is the book for you. These short, easy quizzes are designed to test your cat’s social abilities, communication skills, coordination, sensory perception, and memory using simple experiments with household items. Your cat’s senses and thought processes are vastly different from yours, so it is difficult to gauge intelligence without understanding the motivations behind their actions. This book will give you a chance to figure out once and for all whether or not your cat is blissfully ignorant or just sophisticated and aloof when he or she refuses to eat a cheap brand of food or sleep anywhere but on the couch. Readers will also be encouraged to learn different ways to improve their cat’s mental abilities and quality of life and to bond with their pet on a whole new level.

#1 New York Times Bestseller “Funny and smart as hell” (Bill Gates), Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!
