Tantalizing and Thought Provoking
I bumped into this book at a small US airport and picked it up because I had read most of the other relationship books there.I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised! My three hour flight to West Palm Beach passed by in no time and, as I was sitting opposite the airline hostesses (a real small airline, as you can see), I started a conversation about the relationship between pet preferences and partner preferences, mid flight, after only reaching mid book. I had dinner with one of them afterwards! This book is an undiscovered gem: pick it up!

A dud.
No doubt, one stormy night, the two authors were sitting around wondering what kind of book they could write that could cash in on some yet unexploited daffiness, wrapped in the disguise of psychology. Well, I guess this is what the come up with, unfortunatley. This book was absolutely awful.

A must-read for anyone interested in relationships and pets!
This is one of the most entertaining, perceptive books about human relationships (and pet preferences) that I've ever read. Authors Patnaik and McKinnon turn pet preferences into high art, analyzing cat and dog "personalities" (and let's not forget "binines") with humor, insight, and anthopological depth and intensity. Highly recommended. I'd buy this before I bought any other book on relationships, period. Enormously helpful.
