The Cat Who Came for Christmas by Cleveland Amory

The Cat Who Came for Christmas by Cleveland Amory

A cat charms its way into a curmudgeon's heart one hilarious holiday season in this extraordinary bestselling Christmas classic (Parade), the perfect gift for the animal lover in your life.
'Twas the night before Christmas when a bedraggled white feline entered the heart -- and home -- of Cleveland Amory. To say it is a friendly takeover is an understatement. For the cat who came for Christmas is clearly of the Independent Type, and Cleveland Amory, cranky or not, is a pushover where animals are concerned.
Toe to toe they stand -- Amory at six feet three, the cat at six inches -- and eyeball to eyeball with each other on every issue: whether or not to come when called; to recognize one's name; to take a trip, a pill, a bath, or a walk on a leash; to be civil to New People; or even in an age when Thin Is In, why anyone in his right mind would want to be the Last Fat Cat. We will not spoil The Cat Who Came For Christmas by telling you who blinks first. Suffice it to say that in this hilarious battle, nine times out of ten, it is not the cat.

Cleveland Amory (1917-1998), who had been called the premier protector of animals on this planet, wrote three New York Times bestsellers about his cats: The Cat Who Came for Christmas, The Cat and the Curmudgeon, and The Best Cat Ever. A former columnist for Saturday Review, the chief critic for TV Guide, and contributing editor of Parade magazine, Amory founded the Fund for Animals in 1967, from whose headquarters in New York City he directed his far-flung anticruelty operations.
