Product Description

A cookbook for cats with discriminating palettes, Cat Nips is a collection of charming and hilarious "recipes" for everything from Creamy Critter Dip ("anything with more than four legs will do") to Termite Teriyaki ("do not stir with a wooden spoon if using live termites") and from Beetles Bechamel ("serve over Cat-scratch Biscuits") to Blackbird Pie ("serve with a pocketful of rye"). Includes handy and hilarious "field" guides to mice, birds, predators and other critters, as well as cat-centric measurement and substitution charts (but there is no substitute for mice).

Anyone with an affinity for a finicky feline will enjoy this Cat-alogue of Cat-ering possibilities for their beloved four-legged gourmet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cat Nips: Delightful Nips of TRUE Culinary-Minded Kitty Food, May 3, 2003

By	"CJ" (Ventura, California USA) - See all my reviews

This is the very first book I have seen for cats that focuses on food for cats "FOR" cats! Cats will love it and readers will LOVE to hate it! It is a wonderfully well-versed book - even the titles and subtitles are "cat-catchy" and humorous (be sure to read even the small print). The hilarious expressions in the colorful artwork fit the verses perfectly - the people who put this book together really must KNOW cats! I have shared this book with fellow student cat-lovers and we all agree "It's a RIOT!!!"

1.0 out of 5 stars Boring., August 16, 2007

By	Speedylady (Third Rock from the Sun) - See all my reviews

This author managed to get a grade-school type exercise in creative writing published. I am a cat lover, but this is just to the extreme. My young cat loving niece wants to be a chef, and I can't imagine this holding her attention for more than the first few pages.
