Customer Reviews

THE HONOURABLE CAT a classic for cat lovers

I enjoyed my friend's copy of THE HONOURABLE CAT so much that I wanted to have my own copy. I was pleased to receive a copy in excellent condition that I will enjoy in the future and share with other cat lovers.

There Aren't Enough Stars To Rate This Book

I received this book as a gift, along with "The Abandoned," and "The Silent Meaow," all by Paul Gallico. They are each unforgetable. Of the many books of poetry I have read, The Honorable Cat is truly in a league of its own. Written in the wonderful Paul Gallico style, he brings you right to the heart of his characters, whether real or imagined, through the mirth, wisdom, and his ability to connect so intimately with life around him. It is a great book written by a great author.

Honourable Cat

A very special intuitive, spiritual and ethereal caption with each special picture of a cat. To know cats, is to appreciate the words.

Honorable Cat

This book is packed with beautiful kitty photographs and poetry. It is configured with a photo on one page and a poem (based on the photo)on the opposite page. The beginning of the book takes a unique look at the cat from a respectful and appreciative perspective. The authors writing style tends to be "old english" (compared to what I'm used to) But it quickly grows on you. I've read and re-read the book many times...In fact, I find the words drifting into my mind when riding the bus or trolley..It's truly a special book for the cat lover. A+++

My Absolute Favorite Cat Book

Honorable Cat is my "most favorite" cat book. The poetry is unique, the photographs are terrific... this book is so SPECIAL it's hard to sum up in a few words. I try to keep one on hand at all times to use as a special gift. It makes a wonderful coffee table book. My favorite poems include "The Dandelion" and an absolutely priceless ballad about "Tough Tom, the King of the Car Park." I tell you the truth, you can't buy this book fast enough.
