Book: Cat Found (2011)
This book in three words…
Cats, Rescue, Strays
Favourite Sentence from Page 11…
“Billy didn’t move. His big toe itched, but he kept still.”
My thoughts on this book…
This book is a companion book to Dog Lost, although there really is no direct correlation between the two books other than the topic of a community up in arms over animals. In this case, it’s about feral cats. Billy rescues a cat and hides her in his room, away from the prying eyes of his parents. (That’s where my favourite sentence from page 11 comes in… He’s trying to keep still so the cat won’t be frightened of him.)
However, it’s getting harder to keep her hidden in his room. He tries to hide Conga in an abandoned church, but when the town decides to get rid of all the feral cats in the community, now Conga’s in grave danger. Billy needs to do something!
This book is definitely for the animal-lover in you. You’ll be rooting for Billy and Conga. And who can resist that adorable kitten on the front cover?

I hadn’t heard of this one. It sounds brilliant, and the kitten on the cover is irresistible!
