Enchantment for All Ages

Short little cat stories, some of them fable, some of them "true stories," almost all of them absolutely charming. Not only lovely Owls and Pussycats, but bats, foxes, swimming cats, ghost cats, wild kittens, witches, hedgehogs and dolphins. The underlying theme of ownership by our animal kingdom friends and the startling way they bring love into our lives. The book starts with a poem: Do not expect me to be your slave, I have a thirst for freedom.Do no probe my secret thoughts, I have a love of mystery.Do not smother me with caresses, I have a preference for reserve.Do not humiliate me, I have a sense of pride.Do not, I beg, abandon me, I have sure fidelityI'll return your love for me, I have a sense of true devotion -Belgian Traditional PoemI read this to my owner, Pooh, and he approves.
