Cats Believe in Santa: Tales of Finding a Forever Home

When Abbey the Tabby appeared at the Biser household one cold, rainy night, just two days before Christmas, she began a more than twenty-year long family adventure in providing sanctuary for stray cats. With a wonderful combination of photographs and stories, Cats Believe in Santa shares with us the telling images and heartwarming stories of how eleven of these cats found a place to call home.

Read how months of kindness and perseverance fostered friendships between animal and human. From lost and lonely to peacefully purring, readers will be touched by the unique and special bonds that form with even the most aloof of cats.

Enjoy amusing anecdotes, from Midge's obsession with the fax machine, to Sidney's episodes of food theft and dollhouse stalking, to Porky's evening games of tag. Cats Believe in Santa captures the essence of each cat's personality, as they gaze at the camera adorably, spy on unsuspecting feathered friends, or snooze away in the afternoon sun.

Readers who are thinking about providing the gift of a loving home for a cat can learn even more through information provided about adoption organizations.

This book shows how the Spirit of Christmas takes on many forms through the warmth, laughter, and companionship that our feline friends have to offer every day, the whole year through. Truly a book for everyone... for past, present, and future cat owners, and for those who enjoy a feel-good read about how much cats and people have to offer each other.
