Cats Will Be Cats

David Blake's life changed the day he discovered a cat prancing in front of his garage. From the moment he set down that first bowl of cat food, "Missie" has repaid his kindness with one surprise after another. Missie's pregnancy, her first major "surprise", produced four mischievious kittens. This event set in motion numerous adventures involving Missie and her kittens Tiger, Kit Kat, Cutie, and Black Spot. Whether Missie is displaying her protective instincts or returning from a few day's leave, Blake fervently captures these events for the reader. His passionate renderings of the day-to-day happenings in the wild world around him are delivered with a poignancy that few readers will be able to resist. The beautiful illustrations by Ted Griffin enhance the reader's perception of a sometimes cruel world into which Missie, her kittens, and countless other cats have been born. Dave Blake proves that people still exist in this world who are ready and willing to help.
