Saturday Night Cat Tales Edna Irene Dovenbarger

When he first showed up six years ago it was for a free meal and a place to sleep. Within a few weeks, a pattern emerged as he continued to remain outdoors. It was the middle of the summer. He was free to come and go as he pleased. I started taking pictures because he was very entertaining, chasing birds, and catching mice. This was a stray cat with no papers or notices by owners looking for a LOST CAT. Then it happened. One afternoon I watched him crawl across the brick patio in the backyard wounded and crying. He allowed me to handle him and place him inside the cat carrier. This was a recent purchase in anticipation of unknown future events. Within minutes, we were off to the vet's office about a 20 drive away. He had been in a cat fight it seemed to me and was not seriously injured. The vet went to work on him right away. After receiving several stitches, he said he would recover nicely, and I picked him up later that day. What was the course of action now? Should this cat be adopted be me? Saturday Night Cat Tales is a combination of memoir and survival manual for cat owners. It presents an entertaining and compelling message about the animals we live with on this planet. More than 250 photographs help tell the story of six stray cats. Stink who was rescued in 2012 is cast as the leading character. The drama builds when a second stray cat shows up at the same time competing for attention. Some pet owners are familiar with kennels. One unique feature of this book is a backyard enclosed structure already built that I now affectionately call a cat nursery. Complete building instructions with pictures throughout are included. This book is about keeping you and your furry feline happy and healthy.
