Resumen del Editor

Best-selling author and mortician Caitlin Doughty answers real questions from kids about death, dead bodies, and decomposition.

Every day, funeral director Caitlin Doughty receives dozens of questions about death. The best questions come from kids. What would happen to an astronaut’s body if it were pushed out of a space shuttle? Do people poop when they die? Can Grandma have a Viking funeral?

In Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?, Doughty blends her mortician’s knowledge of the body and the intriguing history behind common misconceptions about corpses to offer factual, hilarious, and candid answers to 35 distinctive questions posed by her youngest fans. In her inimitable voice, Doughty details lore and science of what happens to, and inside, our bodies after we die. Why do corpses groan? What causes bodies to turn colors during decomposition? And why do hair and nails appear longer after death? Listeners will learn the best soil for mummifying your body, whether you can preserve your best friend’s skull as a keepsake, and what happens when you die on a plane.

Beautifully illustrated by Dianné Ruz, Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs? shows us that death is science and art, and only by asking questions can we begin to embrace it.

Featured Article: The Best Vacation Listens for the Dwindling Days of Summer


Warm days and lazy afternoons—there’s nothing like summer vacation. And unwinding on the deck, beside the pool, or on the beach with a good audiobook is simply one of life’s greatest pleasures. As autumn rapidly approaches, we’ve been trying to squeeze in just a little bit more summer before the leaves begin to brown. There’s still plenty of time for enjoying a vacation—and finding the perfect listen to accompany you!

Editor's Pick

"I adore Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?, and want to make it mandatory listening for anyone who wonders if kids are too young to be exposed to the concept of death. Author Caitlin Doughty shows how healthy and natural it is for young people to be curious about death, and that it doesn’t have to be sad or scary. As one of the world’s most renowned funeral directors, she gets asked a lot of questions on the topic, and it’s always the kids who ask the weirdest and most wonderful ones. In Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?, she sets out to answer some of them—from "Can I keep my parents’ skulls after they die?" to "What would happen if you swallowed a bag of popcorn before you died and were cremated?". Dressed up as an entertaining romp through an offbeat subculture—and yes, Doughty’s pitch perfect narration is hugely entertaining!—it’s secretly a guide for how to become more comfortable with something we’ll all inevitably have to face one day 💀." —Rachel S., Audible Editor

Caitlin Never Dissapoints!

Another humorous look at the facts from our favorite mortician! Too much stigma surrounds the reality of death and it needs to be cleared away. You will come across some information you already know, especially if you have read her other two books; however this is definitely worth the listen! Many more new facts, and myth busts await!

I am a Deathling.

I originally found this author through her Ask A Mortician YouTube channel and I have liked her voice from the first word I heard. Death is her niche & she speaks about it with a knowledge, curiosity & respect that is comforting & very interesting. I highly recommend her books, videos & narrations.

Engaging,Interesting,Surprising, and Factual

Even though the premise was answering children's questions.....it wasn't done in a patronizing or childlike way. The delivery was given in a straightforward, factual, and scientific way that makes it interesting for anyone who likes to learn new things. The narration made it an even more enjoyable listen to because it was enthusiastic and passionate. Overall it was very enjoyable.

Mystery solved!

The topic of death and all that it entails is a touchy subject to discuss publicly in western society. I appreciate her willingness and candor to answer questions about death, the death industry, death planning options, and the surviving loved ones' rights. This short book takes that conversation to another level and answers a few questions grown ups are too hesitant to ask but sure are thinking. I will die knowing the answer to the question on the cover of her book. You will, too, if you read it.

Another informative, charming, and thought provoking account from Doughty! Love it!!

This is a great addition to any library and is suitable for kids young or older as well as adults (but be prepared to have an awkward conversation or two with little ones)! Caitlyn Doughty answers the questions from her young fans with honesty and humor (where appropriate). Nothing is infantilized or sugar-coated. Who knew talking about death, corpses, and decomposition could be so fun! Her audiobook narration is better than ever as she does voices, dramatic reading, and even sings (I won’t spoil my favorite moment, you’ll just have to listen yourself!). As always, Doughty makes learning about the most difficult topics fun without glossing over the cold hard facts we’re all secretly DYING to know! Can’t wait for her next one!!

Morbidly Delightful

What can I say? Caitlin is able to tackle real questions from real kids... but also things we as adults are afraid to ask.

A great teaching tool on becoming death aware and, while we never really want it to happen, this book helps view the great unknown in a more illuminated aspect.
