I ordered this book because I was intrigued by the title, "Kitten Whisperer." Well it has almost nothing to say about communication with kittens, what their behavior means, how to deal with shy kittens, aggressive kittens, etc. It is simply a beginner's book on how to choose a kitten and deal with it in the very beginning (e.g. get a litter box). DUH. I would love to find a book that gives me real information about the topics I mentioned above. I am an experienced kitten fosterer for a large rescue organization, and I would like to learn more about real kitten "whispering."
