A must-have for cat lovers! Excerpt Right about now, you're probably thinking, “Oh great. Just what the world needs... another cute cat book. One more cheap attempt by some hack writer to cash in on my human's gushing adoration for us felines.” Au contraire, mon fellow chat. Sure, at a glance, The World is Your Litterbox appears to be just another disgustingly-cute cat book... but that's merely a clever ruse to get humans to buy it. And they will. Oh yes. Believe me, when human cat lovers see my gorgeous puss (pardon the pun) on the cover, The World is Your Litterbox will fly out of bookstores and ultimately wind up in the paws of inquiring cats coast-to-coast (including yours). For you see, fellow couch clawer, while your human thinks they have bought The World is Your Litterbox purely for their own amusement, the fact is that this book is actually a self-help manual for YOU. That's right. A book by a cat (me) for a cat (you), chock full of important tips and information to make your life even MORE pleasant and enjoyable than it already is. Tips like how to get food anytime you want it... how to get away with unacceptable kitty behavior... how to get your human to sing and act like a complete idiot. Information such as where to hide when you're supposed to come in, but don't feel like it... imaginative, sure-fire ways to wake up your human when they want to sleep late... even a list of great places to throw up. Who could ask for more? It's all here in The World is Your Litterbox, cleverly disguised as a cutesy cat book so your human won't be any the wiser. Am I a genius or what? I can't believe some other cat didn't think of this before.

Cat Fancy Magazine
"Cleverly written with humorous chapter titles, The World Is Your Litter Box is certainly worth the price of admission into Quasi's world - where nothing is too good for this 18-pound cat owned by Steve Fisher. From "20 Good Places to Throw Up" to "20 Good Places to Hide," there are more than 20 good reasons to add this book to your feline reading collection."

Monsters & Critics
Anyone who has ever been owned by a cat will find their worst suspicions confirmed by this feline guide to manipulating their humans. Laugh-out-loud funny, this kitty manual was obviously written by a long-suffering, cat owned human with extensive knowledge of feline behavior. From the different “cute” poses that allow cats to get away with outrageous pranks punishment free to surviving those nasty trips to the vets, this “reference” manual provides a wealth of material for training and putting up with their human companions. Find out what’s really is in those cutesy little cans with the Food Reference Chart that reveals, among other things that Mixed Grill is actually everything but the ground the animal walked on and “God only knows” what’s in Kitty Stew. The thirty-question quiz at the end of this entertaining read makes sure the 1-megabyte kitty brain has retained all the pertinent information necessary to bending humans to their will. An entertaining, light hearted gem for cat fanciers.

Blogcritics Magazine
A couple of months ago, I reviewed a book called Everyday Cat Excuses - Why I Can't Do What You Want by Molly Brandenburg, and now I am reviewing The World Is Your Litter Box: a How-To Manual for Cats by Quasi and Steve Fisher. I want to make it clear that I am not a crazy cat lady; I just happen to have cats and am amused by them.
I am attracted to books by other cat owners who are also amused by the furballs, but I rarely read them. Were it not for Blogcritics, I probably would not have read either book, and subsequently I would have missed out on some moments of amusement. While Everyday Cat Excuses contained a few grins here and there, The World Is Your Litter Box piles them on, one right after another.
Writing as his cat, Quasi, Steve Fisher addresses everything that a cat needs to know, from how to get your human to do anything you want to how to get away with unacceptable kitty behavior (unsurprisingly, there is a strong relationship between the two). Cat owners may find themselves viewing their pet's behavior in an entirely different light after reading this book, and may want to lock up their copies so that Fluffy won't paw through it while they're at work.
This book is by no means a serious psychological study of cat behavior or cat-human relationships, but it does provide some insight into the latter. The main thing I took away from this book is that no matter what cats do to irritate humans, most of us easily melt into a puddle of mush when our pets show affection. Think of how much calmer rush hour could be if we all had a purring cat in our laps?
If you're struggling to finish that last book on the Man Booker Prize list, or you need a break from The Brothers Karamazov (in the original Russian), The World Is Your Litter Box will provide sufficient distraction and amusement, allowing you to return to your more serious reading feeling refreshed.
