If you've ever wondered how someone could yearn to change their genetic gender enough to expose themselves to all the social pressures, potential embarrassments and even violence acting on that urge to change can bring, here is a book by someone who has been through it and will pull no punches in chronicling the adventure. It's great reading and great insight into dealing with alternative lifestyles.My only criticism of the book was that it could use better copy editing. For instance, there seemed to be a gap in the later part of the book where an emotionally exhausted Cindi jumps from determination to end transitioning and goes back home to reunite with an estranged family to being in her car heading straight back to California and gender reassignment surgery -- no explanation of what brought about crisis. There are also a few typos and stranded words where the sentence changed structure mid composition. The author mentions struggling with ADHD and dyslexia in school, afflictions I do not share while often making the same sorts of errors in my writing.Nobody interested in the topic should let the above comment sway them from reading Squirrel Cage. There are no editing issues that make the book difficult to digest. Some are so subtle that my own brain would correct them on the fly and only a nagging sense that something was amiss would drag my eyes back to find the glitch. Read Squirrel Cage. As I did, I think that you'll enjoy it, you'll learn from it, and you'll expand your understanding of others locked in an inner struggle you may have never faced but as a human can completely empathize with. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Could have benefitted from an editor, but fascinating nonetheless *by W***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2013* This is a self-published memoir, and it is a nicely written one, unlike so many other self-publishing travesties. There are many proof-reading errors related to grammar and punctuation, and the chapter titles could be more integrated into a whole. Likewise, there is almost no layout, just words on a page. I've been an editor of a professional scientific journal for 30 years, and so these things do catch my attention.However, the story itself is well-told and has moments of depth, insight, pathos and joy. The craft in the writing is reasonably good and engaging.What is more important is the content of this story. It is about how one person faced her inner demons, or squirrels, as the case may be, in coming to terms with her transsexuality. I can attest to this hard life, either living a lie and slowly dying, or living openly who you are, confronting your religious beliefs and the religious tenets of your family, friends and community, and being pushed out and dismissed by all. In Cindi's case, it was the fortunate happenstance to find people who began to see her not through the lens of their religion or social beliefs, but for who she was. One of the aspects of Cindi's story that resonated was her desire to live an honest life free of lying, deceit, stealing and other negative behaviors, but being forced to do so in order to survive. Her transition allowed her to be once again an honorable person, freed from the need to do ill in order to live.Highly recommended! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Touching and enlightening... *by H***M on Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2012* What an incredible story! It is labeled as a transgender memoir, but there is so much more to it than that.One of my greatest strengths is the ability to be non-judgemental in all situations. One of my greatest weaknesses is the harsh judgement of myself. I was truly touched to read about Cindi's struggle to accept and love herself. Although I am comfortable with my gender, I can relate to Cindi's story for many other reasons.I firmly believe that every single one of us has a Squirrel. The personality of each person's Squirrel widely varies. Some are easy to hide. Others, like Cindi's, are on display for the world to see and judge. Many people try to silence their Squirrel through the use of drugs, alcohol, food, and a myriad of other vices or addictions. The lucky ones, in my opinion, are like Cindi - they work at understanding their Squirrel until they are happy with the results.If you have a Squirrel (admit it, you do!), read this book. It will open your eyes to a whole new world. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/19034301-squirrel-cage](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/19034301-squirrel-cage) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
