About this listen

Learn how to persuade cats - the world's most skeptical and cautious negotiators - with this primer on rhetoric and argument from the New York Times best-selling author of Thank You for Arguing!

Cats are skilled manipulators who can talk you into just about anything without a single word. They can get you to drop whatever you're doing and play with them. They can make you serve their dinner way ahead of schedule. They can get you to sit down right this instant and provide a lap. On the other hand, try getting a cat to do what you want....

While it's hard, persuading a cat is possible. And after that, persuading humans becomes a breeze, and that is what you will learn in this audiobook.

How to Argue with a Cat will teach you how to:

  • Hold an intelligent conversation - one of the few things easier to do with a cat than a human.
  • Argue logically, even if your opponent is furry and irrational.
  • Hack up a fallacy (the hairball of logic).
  • Make your body do the talking (cats are very good at this).
  • Master decorum: the art of fitting in with cats, venture capitalists, or humans.
  • Earn any creature's respect and loyalty.

Cat inspiration

Ever since I was a young girl I have called to cats I have driven or walked past. Every time they stop their business and looked back at me. I can only inspire to be cat like. I didn’t think I could be any closer to my baby boy Indy. Now it’s time to use your tools on my humans as well. I’m a work in progress.

Great read!!! :)

For anyone who owns a cat, this is such a great read. It brought many smiles and laughter my way. And, Hendrich's examples made a lot of sense. I found this book very enjoyable and entertaining. I would recommend this read.

How he compared cats to people.

Not enough story to keep my attention. As short as this book was, it took me a very long time to finish it.
