    Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
    Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
    Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
    Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
    shellwake Hahaha..! I LOVE it!! The only thing that these kitties have in common is that it is impossible to force them to do anything they don't trust! Fortunately, that makes for great t.v. Each cat needs a different fix.Here comes the spoiler.The personalities are the best part but some of the solutions are pretty funny too. The random activities, places and things that are highly valued by some of the cats kill me.Mad Max repeatedly escapes "Max Penitentiary" the owners built to keep him in to beat up the neighbor's cats. Other's fight over a place on the bed. There are cats that need to be walked on a leash, a cat that needs to run in a hamster wheel, a cat that will only calm down when it hears opera music, a cat that enjoys cuddling with a mini fridge. A Happy-go- lucky cat that always gets into things or in the way, a cat that needs to be included in the owner's Pilates studio at home.THIS is why people watch cat videos on the Internet,
    jmw-947-178319 I say Jackson Galaxy is the real deal because he won me over. I was HIGHLY skeptical of this show before first watching some time ago. Then my wife and I brought home our first kitten, and were lost with his unusual behaviors. We wanted to love and care for this new household member but didn't know how. Then we saw this show... Jackson Galaxy and his quirky program My Cat From Hell helped us immensely. Even though our kitten wasn't a "cat from hell", Jackson answered many questions for us, both through the show, and his website. We are very, very grateful for that, and as a result, we have a well-adjusted cool cat roaming the rooms of our house! He's definitely NOT a Cat From Hell!
    A_Different_Drummer The controversial writer Lobsang Rampa (about 400K google hits) claimed to be in telepathic communication with his cat, and allowed the cat to write an entire book in that manner. Not making this up. If you go to the virtual Smithsonian, the Dog and Cat sections, you will see skeletons of man and dog/wolf going back into farthest reaches of time but, generally, cats just "appeared" in ancient Egypt (a place about which we know next to nothing, the so-called "science" of Egyptology notwithstanding) as a QUOTE "gift from the Gods" UNQUOTE where they were in fact worshipped for a time. Tombs of carefully mummified cats have been found, a far cry from the euthanasia treatment of today. (Which explains why cats have become cynical about humans over the millenia). And in the film ALWAYS, directed by Spielberg, there is a scene where the only one in the room who can clearly see "the ghost" (played by Richard Dreyfuss) is, ta-duh, the cat. I mention all this simply to point out that, just because cat-lovers are portrayed in the media as crazy, does not mean there is not something here to be crazy about in the first place. Which brings us to this show, which pretty much hits every "hot button" a reality show can possibly aim for. The star is a sort of a lone gunslinger with a "secret identity" -- cat whisperer by day, jazzman by night. To contact him, you don't have to shine a searchlight into the clouds of a giant cat -- but you do have to send a video, and even then there is no guarantee he will take your "case." His human clients all have one interesting thing in common -- they are ready and willing to throw their human partner under the bus if it means maintaining their bizarre relationship with Fluffy. Even if (in most cases) Fluffy has turned their entire home into a combination litter box and scratching post; has sent one or both of them to the hospital, on various occasions, for stitches and cat-scratch fever; and Fluffy's idea of a roaring good time is attacking his owners when they try to take a potty break in the middle of the night. All this is great TV, especially since, if you were to actually break down onto a spreadsheet the actual "techniques" that Jackson uses, I think there are really only 4 or 5 in all. ("Catify" the home, stop acting like prey, play with Fluffy every day until he is so exhausted he passes out on the rug; check with the vet to see if the cat needs to be medicated; neuter him if you have not already done so, and SHAME ON YOU anyway; and there was one more, but I forgot it.) Bottom line, I like cats so much that I can watch this show for hours much the same way a cat can watch a video of birds. I realize that is not the most overpowering endorsement for a show, but it is 100% sincere, and the producers have taken this as far as they can.
    Freddy Meyer I first watched this show because I had a little spare time while it was on. And I didn't stop from then on.Jackson Galaxy may not look the part at first, but he has it all down. You get the feeling he genuinely wants to help the cats and people he works with first and making a show second - and he succeeds at both.Apart from getting that fuzzy feeling when he settles disputes between any number of four legged and two legged roommates, a lot of his tips have helped me understand my cats better even if they never misbehaved.I would definitely recommend this show for everyone who has cats to watch, but everyone else may wish to tune in too to learn a bit about those animals we like to surround ourselves with.
