5 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
Includes 10 illustrations by Barbara Knox A delightful, whimsical taleone of the most popular books for cat lovers ever written. May Sartons fictionalized account of her cat Tom Joness life and adventures prior to making the authors acquaintance begins with a fiercely independent, nameless street cat who follows the ten commandments of the Gentleman Catincluding A Gentleman Cat allows no constraint of his person, not even loving constraint. But after several years of roaming, Tom has grown tired of his vagabond lifestyle, and he concludes that there might be some appeal after all in giving up the freedom of street life for a loving home. It will take just the right human companion, however, to make his transformation from Cat About Town to genuine Fur Person possible. Sartons book is one of the most beloved stories ever written about the joys and tribulations inherent in sharing ones life with a cat.

Love, love, love! 💗 It reminded me of Foodini. Cute, humorous, and heartwarming. A Cat About Town, aka a Gentleman Cat, decides it‘s time to obtain a housekeeper, or Staff, worthy of his nature. A sweet adventure about the trials and adventures of a young cat looking for a permanent home. Good pick for pet lovers, but especially cat lovers. #pets

WanderingBookaneer @Matchkim : I've wanted to read Watership down for ages! I don't know which I'll read first. 7y
Matchkim You'll have to let me know what you think after you've read it. I was worried would be juvenile, but it's so highly regarded and it fit with animal theme. 7y
LeahBergen Watership Down! 😍😍 7y

available for $1.49 US Kindle right now. I really enjoyed this one and am glad to see it available this way. my copy is the 1970 paperback! Also, it would be a pretty quick read for a read-a-thon, just sayin' ;) You know, in case we had one coming up...
