Cats are evil. That’s the only fitting explanation as to why something so cute and furry would take such visible pleasure in shitting outside its litter box and systematically breaking every glass item in our house. Fortunately so-called cat whisperer Jackson Galaxy possesses powers beyond our own that make him capable of coaxing goodness out of feisty felines. He gives away some of his secrets on his Animal Planet show, My Cat from Hell, teaching humans how to successfully cohabit with cats on a case-by-case basis. And his book Cat Daddy shares more tips and personal anecdotes.

While you’re crossing your fingers for a My Cat from Hell audition, Galaxy will sign the book ($24.95) at Changing Hands Bookstore.
