When cats aren't ruling the world, they're charming the hearts of the people who care for them, as chronicled in the new release Chicken Soup for the Soul: Loving Our Cats (Chicken Soup for the Soul, LLC, August 2008, $14.95, paperback). Their newest pet lovers title bundles tales about cats who healed their owners, rejuvenated relationships, gave new meaning to life and mended family rifts.
This is an excerpt from the press release for the latest Chicken Soup for the Soul title. There's lots more: inside this book you'll read about "Oscar, the garbage can kitty who won the heart of one dog-loving dad," and "Star, the cat who is celebrated every Christmas with an ornament in her likeness." 101 stories over 12 chapters cover everything from "The Power of the Bond" to "Hero Cats" to "Saying Goodbye."
As it happens, I have three copies of this nice book courtesy of Phenix & Phenix Literary Publicists. My job is to give 'em away, give 'em away, give 'em away now (I can't help sneaking a Red Hot Chili Peppers reference in there).
Lucky me! And soon, lucky three of you!

This would be the first cat story book if I happen to be the lucky one :)
What? I don't have a shelf? Well, SS would just have to make room for me. After all, she has so many books, why can't I have one?
