Bad Kitty School Daze: 04/16/15

cover art

Bad Kitty School Daze by Nick Bruel is the tenth Bad Kitty book (the fourth graphic novel). Bad Kitty's attitude needs an adjustment, so her family is sending her to obedience school. Poor Puppy is going along too just for fun, and maybe to work on that drooling problem.

The school is run by a woman who is a between Jackson Galaxy and a schoolmarm, with a dash of therapist for good measure. She runs a day long course where she teaches animals to get over the worst of their behavior problems. Bad Kitty, as you can imagine, doesn't want to be there. Worse yet, she seems to be stuck next to a dog who HATES cats.

But tucked into this ridiculous story of a cat in therapy, is actual advice on cat behavior and how to introduce cats to dogs and other animals.

Four stars
