Hilarious book for anyone who has ever lived with a cat! Some of the content goes beyond ridiculous and you will find yourself asking, is this author on drugs? But this is definitely still worth a read!

If you own a cat (or cats, the more the merrier!), then you know how it is and you are probably bored of the bazillion books out there telling you about it in the same way.
But this is not to be in this one because Matthew Inman is a wacko (this is, obviously a compliment, sane people are not to be trusted) and if you don't believe me, look at the title of the book.
Featuring The Bobcats aka. cats who work on a random office but act like cats which is freaking awesome (f.ex. the litter box in the bathroom), a Venn diagram of a homeless man vs cats, a complete guide in how kittens are plotting to take over the world (I think they keep planing it buy there are too lazy to put in into motion) and the best one: how would you look if you acted like your act? The answer is a moron because we humans are morons but read it anyway.

Great read. My only complaint is that I wish it was longer! I found myself laughing out loud. I love The Oatmeal's work. So many great gems in here that I'd like to put on a poster.

I love the Oatmeal and his comics. They are a bit crude and rude at times, but also highly funny and make me laugh all the time.

This book is just the same. Some comics I recognize from the website, and some are new. And this one is all about cats, their evilness, their cuteness, how to treat them and more. There is also comics about the bobcats, or the cats named Bob who spread terror and horror at their workspace.

There was one comic that seemed a bit offensive (the gay cat thing), but it turned out to be just ok and it was in the end had a nice message. :)

This is a short book, I am a bit sad about that part. Maybe more comics would have been fun.

All in all, I recommend this book to everyone who likes cats, or is interested in the Oatmeal Comics.

Some of the comics were cute, but many weren’t aligned with my humor style
