Do you know a cat that’s a little too smart for its own good? The cat in this story certainly is! She rarely leaves the table and has been known to fall asleep in the fruit basket. If her owner happens to leave food out, she will eat it. The same goes for his morning coffee. If he happens to leave his cell phone on the table, she will not only use it, but she’ll make long distance calls to all her friends while sipping on his cola and eating his chips! When her owner finally puts an ad in the paper to get rid of her, it comes a little too late; the mischievous cat gets the last word! Fundora’s simple illustrations serve to enhance the humor of the story, while the simple text enclosed in speech bubbles makes for easy reading. An amusing tale that will appeal to young children and cat lovers of any age. Recommended for all libraries.
