These eighteen poems focus on typical cat experiences such as a trip to the vet and a dirty litter box (though an audience for the line "I may be forced to void my bowels / on carpets, easy chairs, or towels..." is questionable). The illustrations are more effective in depicting humor than cuteness, which looks forced. A CD of the poems is included.
