A Book you hate to finish!

I enjoyed reading this book very much. I only wish I could write the author my congratulations. This book made me smile and I enjoyed the rightous ending. =) Thank you Michael Peak!OH, cat lovers will really enjoy this book. FYI By searching the net I have discovered he has written another book called Catamount.

A unique angle on our pets

One of the main reasons I enjoyed this book was because of its angle. Peak takes household pets, wild animals and gives their interaction with each other and with us. He creates characters that have lives, personalities, interests, romances, appeals and all the other things that make a boot good. The subjects are simply cats, birds, wild cats, coyotes and such. The main characters are several spayed household felines. They are driven, like everyone else in the world by sex. You'll also note that their owners are as well in several cases. So Peak creates a literal cathouse where spayed female cats can hang together and catch a few guys for a little bit of fun. However they are soon accosted by a pack of starving coyotes (Note the save the habitat angle) and find an bald eagle and a mountain lion for allies. Can the storyline be real? Peak simply gives words and emotions to the interaction of animals. The same interactions that we always see. Some of it is plausible; some of it is not. However, this is a fantasy story. It's supposed to be make believe. Besides, how do you know what your spayed cat is doing at night when you let her out?
