A cat book

A mischievous, pampered, and thoroughly self-assured cat takes center stage in this playful collection of comic verse. With a tail for saying no to bread, a weakness for butter and cream, and an instinct for finding forbidden treats, she is portrayed as both familiar household companion and incorrigible little outlaw.

Each poem explores a different feline quality, from cleanliness and greediness to playfulness, cruelty, impatience, and sleepiness. Cats tangle balls of wool, outwit children, pursue fish, torment their prey, and fill the night with an astonishing variety of miaows, all described with jaunty rhythm and affectionate humor.

The verses are paired with lively illustrations that capture the cat’s changing moods and comic habits. Charming, brisk, and easy to dip into, this audiobook offers a lighthearted portrait of cats as elegant creatures who expect comfort, resist authority, and somehow remain irresistible despite their many offenses.
