Hello gorgeous library guests and welcome to my private library.

So sorry to have missed mew the last couple of weeks, in fact it's been a disaster fur feline fiction, but anyhoo I'm here now and that's all that matters!

Mew maybe wundering why Fudge is guarding my books, well there's a new cat in town sniffing around and I thought he looked like he was taking a shine to that stack through the window the other morning early on, so I charged Fudge with being book security and as mew can see, he takes his job furry seriously!

I did draw the line at his suggestion of a tank outside the catservatory... these young mancats and their toys hey??!! MOL

And now I think it's time to share this weeks book.

This week I'm sharing

Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats

by

T.S. Eliot

Mew know I was reading my news feed on Thursday morning and a headline said; 13 Books to read before they're made into movies or released as movies, something like that, I can't quite remember now.  But anyhoo my interest was piqued and as I was scrolling through the list I came across today's book and what I didn't know was, that the mewsical Cats is based on it - I suppose the entire wurld but me knew that fact but then I have zero interest in mewsicals! MOL 

So aftur that completely useless factoid which mew guys already knew, what did I think to this classic? I thought it was epic and young Melvyn joined me again so we could have storytime and he agreed it was epic too!

We both absolutely loved rhyme time, and think effuryone should read this at some point. And just before I pop off, another completely useless factoid, my copy used to belong to a library in Hertfordshire, and know it's part of the Mewton-Clawson library, how fabulous.

Hello gorgeous library guests and welcome to my private library

Mew know I was thinking the other day aftur seeing some of Basil's throwback pics which he shares in his Brain Training posts, that I should have a little search through the old photo archives, so I did! MOL

This is me way back in June 2007, who knew 12 years could pass in the blink of an eye? Wow look, I don't have that little notch missing from my left ear, actually I remember that happened in June 2008 when Dad was away on business.

Anyhoo, I hope mew like my throwback to 2007, but now I think it's time to share this weeks book.

This week I'm sharing

Ziggy the Rescue Kitty Gets a New Home

 by 

Tama Ann Blake

**Furstly I have to let mew all know that I was given a free copy of this book in exchange fur a fair review**

Book Blurb:

Ziggy the Rescue Kitty is a fictionalized account of a snow-shoe kitten's rescue and trip to his new adoptive home. We travel along with Ziggy on his trip to the animal shelter, to the vet, and through his adoption day. Being chosen for adoption, he travels from the shelter to home where he meets his new family which includes a grumpy kitty brother and two great dane sisters.

So what did I think to this book?

I thought it was a lovely little story with the most gorgeous illustrations and would be absolutely fabulous fur younger readers to learn about kitty adoption.

Any book that helps younger generations learn the importance of animal kindness and adoption is a winner fur me, because all our anipal furriends need their own happily ever aftur! 

And even young Melvyn wants me to read it to him!

This book is great fur all ages, and I would recommend it without hesitation. So if mew're looking fur a little book with a pawsitive message, this is definitely fur mew and would make a purrfect gift fur younger children. 

I'd like to say furry many thanks to Austin Macauley fur sending me a copy of  Ziggy the Rescue Kitty Gets a New Home, thanks so much guys, it is a wunderpurr book! 

Available from Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com or direct from the publisher

Hello gorgeous library guests and welcome to my private library

Appurrrently I need to get my glasses purrscription updated, as the other day during Pandora's photo shoot I did this!

Pandora was really peeved at this point and is no doubt writing to Parsley with a seriously serious Pet Peeve! MOL! OOPS! MOL!

And now I think it's time to share this weeks book.

97 Ways to Make a Cat Like You

 by 

Carol Kaufmann

Mew may remember a couple of weeks ago I showed mew my latest book haul, well today I thought I'd share the one off the top of the pile, as I was intrigued.

So what did I think of 97 Ways to Make a Cat Like You? 

If your hooman is completely new to being a CAT SLAVE then I highly recommend mew get this book stat!  It's full of furry useful hints, tips and tricks fur the newbie.

If your hooman is a moderately seasoned Cat Slave, then this could also be a great read as there'd be hints, tips and tricks that he/she may not know.

And finally, if your hooman is a veteran Cat Slave, then I think they'd purrobably know all of these hints, tips and tricks.

So depending on what level your hooman Cat Slave is at:

Newbie
Seasoned
or
Veteran

depends on whether or not mew need this book in your life so that my gorgeous library guests is entirely up to mew.  But I would definitely get it fur Newbies, without a doubt as it would save at least a couple of years of training.
