Review: Engineering for Cats: Improve the Life of Your Pet Through 10 Ingenious Projects

Engineering for Cats: Improve the Life of Your Pet Through 10 Ingenious Projects by Mac Delaney
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Engineering for Cats is a serious book offering designs for cat-friendly surfaces, fountains, and nooks. Many of the designs require carpentry or shop experience, and in particular require tools (e.g.circular saw, jigsaw), that the average apartment dweller may not have, unless they have access to a machine shop. That said, many of the designs are simple, practical and better made versions of those one can see on a variety of cat accessory websites. Delaney offers clear instructions on how to successfully accomplish these simple designs and weekend carpenters can find inspiration to satisfy their felines. The cat graphics in the book, while droll, reduce the appearance of serious information conveyed in the book. The cover design in particular is likely to lead some readers to believe that it's another cat humor book. This is a useful book for those who are set up to build for their felines.

I received a Digital Review Copy of this book from Workman Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
