Wordy on Wednesday with Biblio-Kitty Amber #40 featuring AstroCats

Welcome To


With Amber ~ The Self-Appointed Biblio-Kitty


Supurr salutations fellow biblio-cats

*waves paw*

Furstly before I begin, I have the honour of announcing the winner from Smoochie's epically epic birthday give-away.

And the entries are...


So here's the draw...


Concatulations to 

Cat on My Head

Woo Hoo Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo and Cooper Murphy, mew guys have some fab stuff coming and we'll make sure the P.A. gets it sent before she leaves fur BlogPaws.  

*     *     *

So what's been happening I hear mew ask... let's see, we've still got a dragon loose at the KitKnitCosPlay Blog, hopefully part deux of the Dragon Wars story will be live on Friday, though as the P.A. is leaving on Tuesday things are getting a little hectic! MOL  

So we'll see how we go and keep mew notified.

Oh and sadly I won't be here fur the next two weeks due to the P.A.'s selfish trip to BlogPaws, so I'll be back on the 30th of May, but I'll use my time wisely and have a pawesome book fur mew upon my return.

 And on that note, I think it's time fur this weeks book, so let get to it...


This week on book reviews with Amber, I'm sharing

Astrocats

Julia Harris

Here's a little snippet of the book blurb:

Have you ever wondered if your cat was an anarchic Aquarius or a peaceful Pisces

Now you can find out with this guide to a cat's stars. 

*     *     *

The P.A. bought this book way, way back in 2003 as she's always been interested in stuff like that.  So offur the weekend when I was purrusing my library I stumbled across it in the Mind, Body, Spirit section and thought to myself let's just see how accurate this is; I am a Scorpio kitty, my birthday is October 24th and here's a little of what it said:-
It says my key phrase is 'I control' and that I'm very intense and need assistance in relaxation... hmmmm.  I think I'm intense about my napping schedule and how many pats I get, but I don't think I need assistance in the relaxation department, to be honest if I was any more relaxed I'd be in a kitty coma!!! MOL MOL

Appurrently I am exceptionally loyal and devoted, this is true I'm much like one of those 'face hugger aliens' although I don't lay eggs in peeps that then mutate and burst forth from their chests!!! MOL MOL

My supposed likes are; cosy evenings in with just myself, night time, cellars, attics, quietness, secret hiding places and hunting.

Yes to effurything except, cellars, attics and hunting.

My supposed dislikes are; change, visitors who call me kitty, next-doors dog and having nowhere to hide.

No, I don't like change, I really don't like visitors, nextdoors dog is a pain, and I do need a hiding place, so all purretty accurate.

There's so much more but obviously, I can't tell mew effurything, so I'll say this;  what a fun little book, it's pocket-sized so ideal to stuff under your pillow fur a bit of reference when the need arises.  It's furry detailed and as I purrused the rest of The B Teams signs, I could definitely get a better insight into the madness that makes them tick.

I did enjoy it furry much, and I think mew will too, if mew want a deeper understanding into what motivates mew, read it and I'm sure mew'll be pleasantly surprised what mew learn.

  • Hardback: 120 pages

Offurall Enjoyment

I hope mew enjoy this book if mew do take the plunge and buy it... and if mew've read it already, tell me what did mew think?

Sadly it's time fur me to say BFN or bye-fur-now as mew know the drill, so many books, so little time and join us when we'll be here on Friday with the Pet Parade.

Happy reading or listening

  3. OMC...we won something. How lucky are we. Many, many thanks. You know our mom will be at Blog Paws Conference as well. If your mom has room in her luggage, it may be easier and less expensive to bring whatever we've won with her. And it will give her room in her luggage to bring more swag home to all of you. Sounds like an interesting book, Amber. Thanks for the recommendation. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo and Cooper Murphy
