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.

Jason's got it down: owning a pet's little different than raising children, people gotta take responsibility, adjust and do what's necessary for a healthy and productive member of the family!

Don't try it all on your own, bring over a Jason, friend, family, whomever to help out occasionally, or get a second opinion.

I watch his shows regularly, I have 4 cats, live with my brother, raising a teen, look for tips to improve our routine together.

Jason's the best! No surprise he's worked years in animal shelters, clearly he understands CAT fundamentals, that living with a cat, or any animal for that matter, means working with their needs and instincts, and accommodating them to their environment. That means cat hair in the house, along with their love and affection.

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!

In my 46 years I've been guardian to 16 cats and foster to 6 cats. I've lived with 8 roommates who, with the exception of 3, had no cat Mojo. Cats can exhibit dog-like behaviors, but they're relationship with humans is completely different, but just as much rewarding as a human's relationship with a dog. Some people are more inclined to living with one species over the other, and some people are "bi-petual". I am the latter. Interaction with any domesticated animal is conditional on the energy you bring to the situation, as well as being attuned to the animal's body language. Jackson teaches that lesson with exceptional insight, which comes from years of experience and observation. He repairs both human, as well as cat relationships with frankness, tools for cat enrichment and patience. He is one of the most visible, vocal and compassionate ambassadors for the most misunderstood and maligned pets. Every episode is a building block to advance to the next. He started in 2011 with basic problems and has progressed to more complicated ones, tackling issues such as TNR (Trap Neuter Release of feral colonies), making over shelters and rescues, featuring cat cafes that offer interactions with cats saved from kill shelters and featuring how loving cats with special needs are just as important as those without. He has given incredibly generous gifts to help guardians give their cats better and safer lives. Everyone who lives with a cat or cats can learn something from each episode of _"My Cat from Hell" (2011)_ (qv).

When you look past the theatrics, this show is the best guide for proper cat care.

Jackson makes all the points (allthough I'd love it if he would go more into keeping at least two, especially in young cats but oh well).

Catify, make room for your cats and don't use them as accessorries, GOOD FOOD, spay and neuter, learn to read their language and keep them inside if you can.

Even if the storylines are mostly the same, repetition is key to learn and when I, as a European, see what pet-care in the US widely is, I feel like some learning is way overdue.

Some are awful owners, crying about cat scrached them. Galaxy guy droging some cats with antidepressants. There are some good advices about playing with cats etc, but giving them meds for behavior? You do know they are cats, and some of them have bit of wild behaviourJust get a dog 🙄

This whole show can be summed up to:just get a dog live happy lives, instead of living with cats that..Oh No! Scratched me....Every episode is the same.. Who is still watching it anyways?
