This book is as bad as it's companion, Dog Treats. Again with the ingredients I wouldn't feed a cat, what happened to the age old don't feed your cat dairy rule? These receipes call for eggs, cottage cheese, butter and yogurt, and who has time to cook brown rice and biscuits? I was hoping for healthy treats but these are anything but healthy. The receipes have few ingredients and seem simple until you realize they must cook for 45 minutes. And although the publisher says you can make them while cooking your own supper, I can't remember the last time I made Bombay Kedgeree with brown rice, flaked smoked mackerel, parsley, and hard boiled eggs! Yech!

Unlike the former reviewer, I understand that cats can have dairy product in moderation (presuming one's cat has no lactose intolerance) so didn't find that aspect of the book disturbing. These are to be "treats" after all, not regular dining experience. Also, since I love to cook, the extra time spent on some of these treats is worth the effort because I will know exactly what is in them (unlike storebought treats)!

I really like this book. It has a lot of fun little facts and hints and also some good recipes. As for those who reviewed and did not like because of the ingredients, remember these are treats, not just everyday food, plus it adds variety to your cats diet not to mention how excited they all get when you feed them their homemade treats. My cats also love this book dearly (they told me so) Even the most finicky cats love most all of these. Definetly a great book and will recommend it to anyone!!

I looked very much forward to receive this book, as from deacribtion it seemed to be that practical guide I needed in my work. But all the way through the book it repeats itself, and what is repeated is so selv-evident, that you continue to skip pages to search for some INFORMATION. A lot of words, a lot of schemas, that I cant imagine anybody would waste their time on filling in, as these are also just an endless repetion of basically the same questions.

This book is a must-have for any clinician or academician who supervises trainees at any level of training. Because of its workbook format, it is efficient to use as either a practical resource or as a textbook, and it lends itself well to a multi-disciplinary environment. Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Counselors, Social Workers, Teachers, etc. - all will find the workbook equally useful. It has a developmental perspective, and integrates theory, current research, and practice with useful and practical tools for becoming an effective supervisor. In comparison with other available resources on Supervision, I rate this workbook as more thorough in content, and more practically useful than any supervision resource in my library.

The worst book I've ever read. Terrible humor, terrible stories, and only 1/4 of the book has to do with the animal called a rat. Do yourself a favor and DON'T BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!

I think the true measure of a children's book is how much children enjoy it, and mine LOVED this one. There is humor in it appropriate for various ages (both my 4- and 8-year-old laughed constantly). The interaction between the brothers is very believable, and instructive in many ways to my two boys.

I noticed that another reviewer was upset that the book wasn't all about rats; I wasn't actually expecting that.

We all heartily enjoyed "Rats!". I highly recommend it!

A real strength of this book is its broad scope; both in range of species, and in wide range geographically. Within a few pages there will pictures of the vulturine guinea fowl, the white-breasted nuthatch, and a red-throated diver (loon). The pictures are spectacular, whether it is wandering albatross courtship, an upside-down emperor bird-of-paradise, or a common bee-eater offering his mate a dragonfly. A minor annoyance is that the location of the species pictured is not usually listed. The text covers a wide range of species, and focuses on describing the behavior, but not allot of deeper evolutionary discussion. Some researcher names are mentioned, but there are no citations or sources for further reading. I think the book might be considered an informative, coffee-table book.

I grabbed this book from a friend, not really expecting to like it, but looking for something to read on a plane trip. And I have to admit it was an enjoyable and quaint middle class story. An old style mystery with a good heart. The writing is done in the vernacular of its New Orleans cast and it makes for a easy read.

An it's exactly that an easy read, a big mac, it's not a book that you're going to think back on one day. So, if you're looking for a good book for the plane or the beach, knock yourself out. If you want something alittle meatier, move on.

I really was intrigued by this book. I just finished reading it, and I must say, it is not what I expected. I went against the rules of choosing a book and chose to buy this one because of its title. You must admit that it is a little interesting. So, I read it and now I feel that there is a whole side of Hollywood (aka, La-La Land) that people don't often know about. The book goes into a lot of the action behind the scenes of life in Hollywood. Being from the east coast, it was a new point of view with which to look at the lives of Californians. I can't say that I really liked the book, but the story was definitely one that had promise. The characters were moderately well-developed and there were enough surprises to keep me reading. It's a good book if you like mysteries and the occult.

This book is a waste! I would never feed my dog cheddar cheese, omletes, brown sugar, or most of the ingredients found in these receipes. I was looking for a book that would have receipes for healthy biscuts to supplement the all natural diet I'm currently feeding. This is definitely not it! This and it's companion book Cat Treats uses ingredients I would not feed my dog or cats, and the receipes are fairly long and time consuming and usually make one serving. Who has the time? My advice is unless you have plenty of time and feel like spending 35 minutes in the kitchen making Lamb Loaf Bedlington, you should look elsewhere for treat receipes.
