The Cornered Cat

A Woman's Guide to Concealed Carry

By: Kathy Jackson

Narrated by: Kristi Alsip

The Cornered Cat is the ultimate resource for women who choose to carry a firearm for self defense. It covers everything from cleaning a pistol to methods of carry. It tells women everything they ever wanted to know about how to carry a firearm for self defense.

The Cornered Cat is all about women that have chosen or are considering choosing firearms for self defense, sport, or just wanting to understand more about what their menfolk find so fascinating. This audiobook contains a wealth of information presented in Kathy's warm and often humorous style. She tackles the serious considerations of using deadly force in defense of oneself and loved ones in a thought-provoking, non-judgmental, "between girlfriends" prose that is neither threatening nor sugar-coated, just very real.

Good overview for beginners

It is a very overview of the subject. Some sections are hard to follow because they refer to or just list websites. A PDF of the lists would be helpful.

What you need to know

If you are new to guns or are NOT new to them ... this is what you need to know.

Only a fool wouldn’t listen to this book or read it

As an instructor dating back to the last quarter of the last century, I found this book very enlightening and covering a number of things that not only the new shooter will be exposed to, but also the old shooter and looking at things in a more modern way
I plan on recommending this book in all my classes, not only for the females in the class, but also the males.

Thank you for changing my training and thinking

This has helped me grasp (not understand) a new perspective! I try to be very open to ideas and training, which obviously coming from my background as a man, is hard to wear a woman’s perspective. The insight and stories combined with well timed humor and wit provide such value and context to what it takes to make the best decision on how to defend yourself! What tools, ethics, laws, and equipment you need to understand the move into the realm of training to competence and repeatable action. I thank my amazing instructor and friend Heather for this recommendation!

Kathy thank you for your time and effort writing and Kristi for bringing it here!
