Cat Daddy: What the World's Most Incorrigible Cat Taught Me About Life, Love, and Coming Clean by Jackson Galaxy

4.0

I purchased this book after becoming a fan of Jackson Galaxy's show, "My Cat From Hell." On the show, he is called to consult cat owners on how best to deal with their misbehaving felines.

The book is an emotional journey into the life of a man who goes through his own kind of hell with his struggles in life. These include addictions, mental illness, weight problems, and a host of other problems. On the way, he discovers that he has a gift for communicating with cats.

While working at an animal shelter, he rescues Benny, a cat with challenging behavioral and physical difficulties. The relationship with Benny ultimately forces Jackson to realize that he, himself is worthy of rescuing.


The book was a quick and easy read, but not at all boring or predictable.

I am still not convinced; however, that Jackson Galaxy is his real name.
