The Fur Person

The Fur Person by May Sarton, 106 pages


This is the story of Tom Jones, a cat, told from his perspective.  Rescued as a tiny kitten by a young boy, Alexander, the Fur Person put up with Alexander’s antics for several months before deciding to set out on his own.  He spent another couple years roaming the streets, a Gentlemen Cat, living by the rules a Gentleman Cat lives by, until he felt that it was time to settle down.  Finding just the right place and just the right people is a challenge, but Tom Jones, as his eventual people came to call him, was up for the challenge.  A fun story from a cat’s perspective, anyone who has ever owned or loved a cat will find this little book completely believable.  Readers who like animal stories should definitely check this one out.
