Happy Friday everyone! It is sad to do a book review without my Lucy, but I got this book to review after she went to The Bridge. Cats on the Job: 50 Fabulous Felines Who Purr, Mouse and Even Sing for Their Supper by Lisa Rogak is an excellent book filled with all sorts of cats who “work”. In most cases, the word work is a bit of a stretch, but all these cats make life better for the people near them.
( Random shot of Lucy)
One cat lives in a bookstore that is named after him. Boswell’s Books is in Shelburne Falls, MA. Being that this is in my state, I hope to get their sometime soon ( hint, hint to Phoebe’s Grammie).
I also enjoyed reading about Roommate cats in Tokyo. A cat and all their essentials is included in an apartment rental. When the renter moves, they have the option to adopt the cat.
There were also some cats at sea that I am sure you will be hearing more about from our guest posters Cat Scouts Maggie and Felix. I could go on and on, but you get the idea. If you are interested you can get a copy at Amazon. Paperback and Kindle are $9.99.
See you for some hopping tomorrow.
Cute photo of Lucy. We bet all those kitties have better jobs than we do – we’re CPA Cats. Taxes are not exciting at all.
Thank you 🙂 Some of the kitties have exciting jobs and some don’t.
Mom has this book to review, so she’s glad you didn’t say too much to influence her as she hasn’t read it yet. We have a book review today as well plus a giveaway for two copies. Sorry Lucy wasn’t their to help you out. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
I am sure your Mom will like this book. I enjoyed her review of Women Who Love Cats Too Much 🙂 I miss my Lucy, I don’t read as much now that I don’t have her to cuddle with.
I hope they do a Volume 2 – and I can be in it!
That would be nice Summer.
Oh, it’s so nice to see Lucy again! <3
Thank you, I miss her so much. I miss your posts too, I hope you post again soon. Thanks for visiting.
Thank you! I’m soon back!
Good- I am looking forward to your posts. 🙂
Beautiful photo of Lucy! Sounds like a great book. Finally, a book that shows how hard cats work. Licks and purrs to Penny, love Toby
Thank you 🙂 Yes, cats are hard workers despite their reputation for being lazy. Penny says thanks to Toby and sends him kitty kisses :)XO
Mom and I are reading that book now – it’s adorable…..we love the stories and photos!
Hugs, Sammy
I am glad your Mom is enjoying it too :)XO
That sounds like a good book. We hope those cats get paid well. 🙂
If you count a good home and lots of food as pay then yes, they get paid well 🙂
That’s a lovely photo of your lovely Lucy. And this book sounds like a wonderful read. I think I’ll have to look into getting a copy of this. Purrs!
Thank you, I miss my Lucy. You will enjoy the book.
I’m going to find a copy of this book! You know that Lucy is reading with you now…you just cannot see her.
Thank you for your kind words XO

Thank you Flynn, you are very sweet. XO
We need to put that book on our wish list!
It is a good read 🙂
TW used to have a book years ago about cats on the job which she got cos one of her friends was in it with her cat. She’s kicking herself cos she may have deep-sixed it when they moved. She got rid of most of her books and records.
We bet angel Lucy was fluttering over your shoulder when you were writing your review. This sounds like such a great book.
Thank you- you are very sweet. XO
