Alfie the Holiday Cat by Rachel Wells
4.0
Whether it’s my age or not I don’t know, but I have become a cat lover quite late on, getting my first cat less than two years ago. I won’t go into how old I am but having a dog also I hope I don’t fall into the crazy cat lover category just yet! Only joking for all the crazy cat lovers out there.
Doing my food shop I always go down the book aisle in my local supermarket and of course as soon as I saw Alfie and George staring at me from the shelf, I mean how could I resist those faces? So off into my trolley it went.
I haven’t read any other books by this author so obviously haven’t read any other books in the Alfie series. That didn’t matter one iota though as this easily read as a stand alone, though of course it has made me want to go and read the others also now.
Alfie is quite a sophisticated cat. He has been around awhile and is quite intelligent. Not like little George who is still very young and just what you would expect a kitten to be like. Both cats are staying with a family who have been left a house of which they wish to turn into a holiday home for them and their friends.
I could almost feel the heat radiating from the pages whilst reading of their stay in the beautiful Cornish cottage. To be able to spend a summer with the sea and sun just sounded bliss. Only problem is some people are not happy about their arrival and their intentions for the cottage and it is down to Alfie to save the day.
Alfie the Holiday Cat is an engaging and wonderful read. It transported be from my home during a very cold time of year to the heat and warmth of a summers day. (P.S it does start off and ends off at winter time hence the Christmassy look) A great read for most ages and a must read for all the animal lovers out there.
