Introduction

Cats are remarkable animals. They are also beautiful enigmas. They have exceptional hearing, yet they are also experts at ignoring us when we call them. They are among the world's most adept hunters, yet they willingly wear themselves out chasing a small red dot, no matter how many times that red dot "shows up" to taunt them. One moment they are masters of the cool, judgmental stare; the next moment they are purring blissfully, kneading our laps, while blinking at us affectionately.

Is it any wonder with the unpredictable, mysterious nature of cats, that we mere humans will constantly find ourselves making stupid, clumsy mistakes around our cats; mistakes that can only result in a highly offended cat, who expects an immediate apology?
