I enjoyed this book very much, particularly the photographs. (The blue point siamese! Pouncing kittens!) Mr. Gallico sure seems to know his furry friends well, though I did find him a bit heavy handed at times--overly competitive with dog and bird fans. Perhaps he could be the first "feline apologist?" On its way to MarciNYC--should arrive tomorrow or the day after. |

A lovely book which took me longer to read that I anticipated.The poems were fun and I particular liked "The Chair" (p 38) which is you substituted "bed" for "chair" you'd have my Stanley. I found Gallico's essays to be be tedious to read -- but thought too that it might have been the format of the book. They seemed so long -- and the width of the text did inimidate me somewhat. Still, i read them and while they were enjoyable, it was the poetry and photos which I liked best of all. (Now I want a little white kitten!) I'll be PMed Libertine today to make sure that her address has not changed. While I will make every effort to get this in the mail to her this week, it could be next week as that's when payday is. |

Some adorable colour photos and I liked the way the poems seemed to have been written directly from them. Some of the poems were amusing, some annoying....As for the essays...I have to say I got downright annoyed with his rant about desexing cats..calling it 'mutilation'. And this after an essay about strays/homeless cats! Yes, its all very well to ave an ideal...but lets look at the realities of cats that have not been neutered. But, he makes up for this annoyance, my hitting the nail on the head in his "Love" essay... about cat lovers being "able to bear to love something or someone without expecting a return". It took me longer to get through this book than expected and for that I offer my apologies....I will now try to get in touch with the last person on this list and getthe book moving again... |

This is a very short book--so I finished it already! I loved the pictures and some of the poetry. It was a very cute book. Thank you very much, MaryZee, for sharing this as a bookray. My kitty was very interested in this book! He sat on my lap and looked at each picture with me, and then rubbed his face all over the book. Ha! I'm sure many other people (and cats) will continue to enjoy this book. I'm ready to send it to the next person in line. I've PM'd for an address. I will update when the book has been sent on. |
