Next to keeping cats around the house, people apparently enioy writing about them. THE GREATEST CAT STORIES EVER TOLD will introduce you to a wide range of these writers and a wide range of felines: Rhubarb, the bad-tempered yellow tom who inherits a big-league baseball team; Lily, the seductive tortoiseshell who can wrap her owner around her little paw; George Eliot, the silver tabby who may be a bit of a hypochondriac; Calvin, the fastidious Maltese who was so well loved and well lamented; and Ming, the posses- Sive Siamese who develops a taste for blood; along with many other cats—every one of them a unique individual. Each story in this volume has been selected with the most finicky cat lover in mind, selected not only for their intrinsic literary value but also for their ability to convey that special something—that mysterious allure of the cat. --front flap
