description: 1968, U.K. edition, Hutchinson, London. Hardcover title, 227 pages. The author worked on this fascinating title for two years, producing an "astonishing account of the crazy extremes to which modern man has gone in his attachment to his domestic pets." We're talking lavish pet funerals, special clothing, cat horoscopes, insurance plans, cat birth control pills, the very special Viennese landlady whose 'husband' turned out to be a chimpanzee. Fascinating.
