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.
