Marvellous! Both the book itself, as well as other works by Rufus Butler Seder that it led me to.

'With Cats, some say, one rule is true: Don't speak till you are spoken to.'

#BoekPerWeek 15/52 ★★☆☆☆

I adore cats, and I can certainly appreciate light verse. This, however, did not appeal to me all that much.

Urgent and relevant. Concrete and concise.
My advice: Don't just read the titles of the chapters, but read the whole book (or listen to the author read the audiobook).
Then follow up on Snyders advice.
