This excerpt comes from   How My Cat Made Me a Better Man  by Jeremy Feig RELATIONSHIPS Like a Cat in Heat Cat Tale: A few months after adopting Shelly, I learned about her kinky little habit. It began one night when she started sniffing a fluffy blanket in the living room. She dug her claws into the fabric, grasping it tightly. Growing aroused, she then bit the blanket and made prolonged rawrr noises that were infused with sexual energy. For the next few minutes, she just kept kneading, biting, and rawrring. It totally freaked me out. I soon realized that Shelly was just getting her rocks off. She'd been fixed, but some desires can be tough to shake. So I had to accept the fact that my cat liked to pleasure herself. Constantly. It wasn't just with blankets either. She'd hump pillows, towels, even the occasional Nerf football. If an object was soft and pliable, you can bet she'd try to hump it. One day, I received a stuffed turtle as a gift. A bit smaller than She...

  excerpt from How My Cat Made Me a Better Man (Feig)- Epilogue Face the Cat in the Mirror Hopefully, reading this book helped you become a better man or at least spurred on some self-examination. If nothing else, I hope you learned two things: a. guys can read self-help books; and b. cats know how to live a good life. When I first adopted Shelly, I just thought we'd have fun together. I had no idea she'd teach me how to be the best man I could be. I learned never to give up, to manage my control issues, to be more caring, and to make an effort to be happy. I also learned to look underfoot when I was walking since Shelly would get upset when I stepped on her.   This book was all about my experiences with a cat. If you want to learn more, why not adopt one yourself? Not only do cats make great companions, they can also draw out the best in you. Are you lazy? Get an active cat to keep you moving. Are you shy? Get a cat that wears a leash and strangers will rush to talk to yo...

  From  How My Cat Made Me a Better Man : I was alone in the world and didn't see a way to lift myself up into a better situation. ... [W]here could I go to get my life on track? The answer was staring at me all along. Literally staring at me, while I used the bathroom. It was my cat, Shelly. She couldn't say anything beyond the occasional meow, but it was clear she had all the answers. She didn't mind being broke, being alone, or living in a tiny space. She was content. In fact, she thrived.  Take-away: Cats have answers. See more posts on this book .

  Excerpt from How My Cat Made Me a Better Man Make the Most of What You've Got Cats strut around like they own the place. Even the homeliest kittens are born with the unalterable knowledge that they are da bomb . It doesn't matter if they have a goofy overbite, are missing an ear, or have a skinny tail that looks like an extension cord. Whatever they look like, they own it. Ideally, it should be the same for you. Most guys aren't blessed with the eyes of Ryan Gosling or the body of Channing Tatum. You've got to work with what you've got. So, look at your face, your body, and your hair and figure out how to make it work. Overweight? You'll probably want to avoid wearing spandex. Going bald? Cut your hair uber-close to the scalp. Missing one of your front teeth? Get a diamond-studded grill, or learn to smile with your mouth closed. Whatever your situation is, you have options to tailor your appearance based on what you've got to work with. You can create your...
