Hi everyone! Today we are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww….Mondays and Book Date’s It’s Monday! What Are YOU Reading?
I haven’t had much time to read between Christmas shopping, decorating and card writing. I am reading one fun book though on my Kindle. My Mom is going to get me the paperback for Christmas, but I am not a patient woman so I had to see it right away with The Kindle.
Makin’ Biscuits: Weird Cat Habits and the Even Weirder Habits of the Humans Who Love Them by Deborah Barnes is filled with wonderful antidotes than any cat parent will appreciate. And if you sometimes feel like you are a little crazy because of the extremes you will go through to please your cat, then this will make you feel “normal”.
I am honored that two of the stories I sent in were chosen. One is about my Angel Lucy and the other is about our Millie and what we do for him before he goes to bed.
You can get yours on Kindle or paperback at Amazon, it also makes a great gift for any cat lover on your gift list.
Here is Millie on his Dad’s lap the other night.
Lucy used to love to write to Santa. This is her letter in 2014, she wrote, ” Dear Santa, that elf you sent to spy on us sleeps with the fishes. Lucy”.
I can’t wait to check out Makin’ Biscuits!
Thank you 🙂
How lovely that two of your stories were included, no better person I suspect to share their cat experience.
Thank you. 🙂
Congratulations on the stories!
We can’t wait to read the book.
Have a great Sunday…

“Makin’ Biscuits” is definitely on my list! Angel Lucy really didn’t like that elf, huh?
You will enjoy it 🙂 Lucy wasn’t a fan of squealers.
We’ve got a couple of stories in the Makin’ Biscuits book too. The mom received her copy the other day, but hasn’t had a chance to read it yet.
I haven’t read much yet, but I look forward to your stories.
This is great timing! Tomorrow Amarula is going to post about how some of her stories have also been features in Makin’ Biscuits! I just started it but can’t wait to read about your cats and their crazy habits! hairballsandhissyfits.com
I didn’t read it all yet, but I look forward to your stories too.
We have a story in Makin’ Biscuits too! It’s such a fun book.
I haven’t read it all yet, I will look for yours 🙂
I’m very curious about this book! Sounds very good!
It is a fun book 🙂
That is wonderful about your stories being included. Congratulations!
And I laughed out loud with Lucy’s letter to Santa. Poor elf 🙂
A new cat book? We are delighted! Mom is reading the Warriors to us by Erin Hunter. We are mesmerized. She is coming to the end and we read the others so we must see Deb’s new book. Just to think you are in their too is a bonus Ellen.
Shoko, Kali and Jean
Thank you, you are so sweet. XO
[…] she can’t stop laughing, so she must be enjoying it! Some of her favorite cat bloggers, like 15 and Meowing are also in […]
This sounds like a cute book and a fun read. Good to hear you are enjoying it. Have a great week and a Merry Christmas.
Thank you. I hope you have a Merry Christmas too.
T hank you for the book idea and I’m dying to read your stories and wish also to recommend Moonlight, by Michael Chabon. A wonderful fictional memoire, somewhat, of his amazing grandfather and mother and his own family. I also loved the translated books of Camilleri, the inspector in Sicily who solves crimes, but not before having his fried squid or pasta with sea urchin for lunch along the way.
Love, Loulou
Thank you for these recommendations, I will look into them, they do sound interesting. XO and love to you sweet LouLou
We have that book, too…because there are some funny stories from this furmily in there too. Its a great read!
I haven’t gotten to those yet, I can’t wait.
