Just read cat confidential and Loved it - she covered agression (siblings, owners and outside cats), spraying, inapropriate toileting, grief (which had me in tears), oldies and a lot on how strange cat owners are which I found very funny!

I'll be buying the rest of her books pretty soon.

does cat confidential cover more general topics than cat counsellor. My hubby and his sister grew up with kids but long time since sister-in-law had one and has only just gotten a kitten a few months ago from rescue centre. Was thinking a more general book might be better?

I have Ccat confidential but haven't read the others so don't know how it compares to them.    Chapter headings are: The New Kitten (includes stuff like litter training, introductions), The Scaredy Cat (about personality and timid cats), The Aggressive cat (different types of aggression and case histories), The Indoor Cat, The Multi Cat Household, The Weird cat (unusual behaviour), The human/cat bond, The elderly and disabled cat and Coping With Bereavement. 

Hope that helps.
