Download Kitty Cornered: How Frannie and Five Other Incorrigible Cats Seized Control of Our House and Made It Their Home AudioBook Free
Bob Tarte acquired his first face with a cat when he was two . 5 years of age. He must have learned his lessons then, from Fluffy. But as he says, "I listened to my center instead, which always causes trouble." In this particular tell-all of how the Tarte household grew from one recalcitrant cat to six - including a hard-to-manage stray called Frannie - Tarte confesses to allowing these interlopers to shape his and his wife's life, off their dining habits with their sleeping preparations to the position and furriness of these furniture. But more than that, Bob begins seeing Frannie and the other pet cats as unlikely teachers in the art of obtaining contentment, even in the face of illness and damage. Bewitched by the unknowable aspect of domesticated pet cats, he realizes that sometimes wildness and enigma are just what he needs. Using the winning humor and uncanny potential to capture the heart of the pet world that made Enslaved by Ducks successful, Tarte shows us that life with pets or animals gives us a way out of your narrow human point of view to glimpse something larger, more enduring, and much more grounded in the simplicities of love - and catnip.
