Book Description
Welcome to the cat excuse universe! It's a place of fur balls, dead things turned into feline playthings, hours spent catnapping--and stubborn, naughty little creatures who do what they want, never what they're asked. Cats are full of excuses, so any human who happens to be owned by one should use this delightful comic collection to prepare for its sly explanations and justifications. A charmingly line-drawn, highly humorous, and personality-filled kitty presents all the reasons why "I can't." "I'm shedding, I'm salivating, I'm kneading" (but not needing) "you, my ears are rotating," Or she can't be bothered listening because she's having an intense catnip experience. Cat lovers will recognize every funny scenario...and their pets will want to sneak a peek to discover new ideas.
