My first read of the year and I made the right decision in choosing this one. This book contained many wholesome and heartwarming stories involving cats, their owners, sometimes dogs, and Mr. & Mrs. Herriot. Though I teared up a bit during Oscar's story, it's still a light and fun read suited for those who needed a break from heavy-themed books.

I received this book as a gift. What a thoughtful gift it is. I loved the stories and the illustrations are so well done as well.

".... Aku sering mendengar bahwa kucing tidak menyalurkan kasih sayang, mereka puas dengan diri sendiri dan tidak pernah menyukai siapa pun. Apakah kau setuju dengan itu?"

"Tentu saja tidak. Itu omong kosong. Kucing memiliki karakter sendiri-sendiri, tapi aku telah merawat ratusan kucing yang ramah dan penuh kasih sayang, yang setia pada pemilik mereka."
- hal. 128-129

Buku ini berisi beberapa pengalaman penulis dengan pasien-pasien kucingnya. Ditulis dengan gaya bercerita yang bagus dan menyentuh. Ada cerita yang membuat ikut tertawa terbahak-bahak, ada juga bagian yang membuat mata berkaca-kaca.

Stories about cats, set in England = perfect. Well written and engaging stories. My cat, Malcolm, liked it when I read these stories to him.

This was a super cute collection of short stories about cats that Jame's Herriot encountered during his work. All of the cats are adorable (though I think Oscar was my favorite though). I am curious to read more of his work!

Solid 3.75 almost a 4. I loved how charming all of the stories were but wished it was longer and all the characters were more fully developed. Once you began to get to know a person and their feline, it was onto the next one. I must revisit these old childhood favorites (the full Harriet books.)
