Two Cats and the Woman They Own
Patti Davis
Davis has produced a small treasure of a book; it's sometimes wry, sometimes moving, always universal, and, most importantly, wise.

Fiction
Patti Davis didn't really adopt Aretha, her first cat.
Aretha adopted Patti. When her second cat, Skeeter, moved
in, Patti came to realize that she--a self-avowed dog
person--was now officially in thrall to two very demanding
little felines. In 12 short chapters, each delightfully
illustrated by Ward Schumaker, the author recounts how her
life was changed for the better by living with and learning
from her cat companions. In "The Mouse That Got Away" Patti
learns a valuable lesson about hope, and in "The Little
Scoundrel" she realizes just how wrong a first impression
can be. Davis closes each charming vignette with a "Life
Lesson." The lessons, like the stories they illuminate, are
thoughtful and perceptive.
