- Your Guide To Being Owned By A Cat - 

Your House, Their Rules is a comprehensive guide to cat care and related topics. With lighthearted satire, Christopher Mancuso bends his knee to cat royalty while revealing secrets of the Celestial Meow, an ancient religion behind their quirky and often misunderstood behaviors. Each chapter delivers educational and enlightening information, as well as tips and techniques for all stages of cat care. Whether you are an experienced cat owner or only considering a life of Felion Subjugation, Your House, Their Rules is chock full of valuable information, wrapped in a warm blanket of humor and relatability. 

Mancuso goes way beyond the basics, with sections dedicated to special needs cats, abused cats, bottle-kittens, and so much more. A longtime advocate of foster care and adoption, he dispels common concerns and unpacks many topics related to shelter cats and the process of helping them find castles to rule. He also shares over a dozen personal stories from his experience fostering hundreds of cats and kittens in his home, now affectionately known as Hotel Mancuso. From earning the trust of Mr. Bitey the abused cat, to finding a perfect home for Chloe the blind kitten, these tales provide a firsthand look into the joys and challenges of loving all sorts of cats. It’s obvious that Your House, Their Rules is Christopher’s love letter to cats and it will make any reader fall in love with our feline friends as well.

You'll never look at a cat in quite the same way again!

Christopher Mancuso could righteously be called “The Cat Whisperer.” He has written a humorous, engaging, fact-and-experienced filled book of wisdom gleaned over several decades of living, loving, and rescuing cats.

Mancuso’s attention to ensuring quality care, appropriate accommodations, and most importantly, the deserved respect that cats deserve shines through on every page. I especially enjoyed the anecdotal information he included to show the wide variation in cat personalities. Who would have known? And the section on Special Kneads Cats blew me away.

Would that each of us could find the passion for a worthy cause that Mancuso has found in his cat rescue mission. Read this book, and you’ll never look at a cat in the same way again.

Fantastic!

Every felion servant, veteran or new, must have this book. It’s quite informative and entertaining. The rescue operations, especially Sullivan County Humane Society, will appreciate their help, as they do so much for the cats on a shoestring.

This is SO accurate

Now we don’t run a cat motel, nor do we foster (I’d end up with 95 cats)! But I clearly see the two cats who run our household in the author’s descriptions. In fact, I find myself wondering if he’s spying on us😄. We enjoy having cat Overlords (most of the time, anyway). I was truly appreciative of his warning about being certain you want a cat, as it is a long term commitment and not one to be taken lightly. A great read for all current and potential owners of fur babies.
