Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs? Reviews

A charming guide into something we take enormous pains to avoid. -- B. David Zarley - Paste
There's serious science here, but also cultural lessons in death and dying, a little history, and a touch of gruesomeness wrapped in that shroud of sharp, witty humor. -- Terri Schlichenmeyer - Philadelphia Tribune
My daughter hasn't put it down. She reads it out loud to me while we giggle. -- Kari Byron, author of Crash Test Girl and former host of Mythbusters
A delightful mixture of science and humor.... Entertaining. -- Library Journal
A surprisingly heart-warming read. -- Christy Lynch - BookPage
Doughty's answers are as... distinctive as the questions. She blends humor with respect for the dead.... Her investigations of ritual, custom, law and science are thorough, and she doesn't shy from naming the parts of Grandma's body that might leak after she is gone. -- Julia Kastner - Shelf Awareness
