Burmese Cat Dennis Kelsey-Wood
Interpet UK 2001 1842860100 / 9781842860106 New Hardcover Light edge bumps from transit damage
Believed to be the descendant of the Thai breed known as Thong Daeng, the modern Burmese cat is a delightful feline whose foreign body type distinguishes it from other pure-bred cats as does the breed’s traditional brown coloration. Although the breed is recognized by some organizations in as many as ten colours, the traditional brown or sable is the most commonly associated with this appealing cat. In the fancy, the Burmese is treasured for its enduring charm, intelligence, high level of activity and unabashed affection towards it owner. The Burmese owner will welcome the advice from noted cat authority Dennis Kelsey-Wood about the proper care, training and health of the Burmese cat. The author provides a revealing chapter on the breed’s origins and its growing popularity in Europe, a description of the Burmese’s physical characteristics and personality and sensible discussions about selecting a kitten, maintenance, breeding and exhibiting. Mr Kelsey-Wood’s text is enhanced by the accompanying colour photography, both enlivening the chapters and illustrating vital points about the breed.
In all, this book presents over 100 colour photographs and illustrations, including some never-before-seen scanning electron micrograph images produced exclusively for this series. As attractive as it is informative, this book also addresses the health concerns of every Burmese owner, including a special section about feline eye problems, with reliable advice about safety in the home, selecting a veterinary surgeon, coat problems and effective parasite control.
Topics discussed include: History of the Burmese Cat; A portrait of the Burmese Cat; Purchasing a Burmese Cat; Providing a safe home for your Burmese Cat; Feeding your Burmese Cat; Grooming your Burmese Cat; Training and behaviour of your Burmese Cat; Breeding your Burmese Cat; Exhibiting your Burmese Cat; Health care of your Burmese

Murphy's 11th Joe Grey cat mystery offers the usual winning blend of suspense and whimsy.

It's largely up to those incorrigible feline snoops and snitches - Joe and buddies Dulcie and Kit, who cavort over the rooftops at night and eat the best of restaurant food - to thwart a gang of thieves from Los Angeles hiding out in the nearby hills. A complex, well-crafted plot and lively, credible characters will leave fans purring with pleasure.

Cat Fear No Evil Murphy, Shirley Rousseau
HarperCollins 0066209498 / 9780066209494 Hardcover, DJ, 323 pages
When antiques and valuables begin to disappear from residents' homes, Joe Grey knows that something is very wrong in sleepy Molena Point, California. Could the thief be a local or, even worse, is it the old crook who may be connected to Azrael, the sinister, yellow-eyed cat who terrorized Joe and Dulcie years ago, and whose return has Joe's fur standing on edge? Even a seasoned tomcat like Joe isn't prepared for the shock that awaits Molena Point residents at the opening for artist Charlie Harper. While guests are dining on hors d'oeuvres and fine wine at the joyous celebration, a young healthy waiter drops dead at Charlie's feet. Meanwhile, just north of Molena Point, in San Francisco, the cats' friend Kate, a woman with a troubling secret, is followed by a stranger and robbed. Her apartment is then gutted, with claw marks and black cat hairs leading her to suspect the vicious tomcat Azrael. In the most dramatic investigation of their lives, Joe Grey, Dulcie, and Kit, following diverse leads, scratch out the truth and, with cunning feline skills, restore a distraught village to its usual cozy tranquility.

Cat Fear No Evil Shirley Rousseau Murphy
HarperCollins 2004 0066209498 / 9780066209494 New hardcover
With her latest Joe Grey mystery, Murphy moves closer to integrating the world she created in her first adult novel, The Catswold Portal (1992), which features shape changers who shift between cat and human forms. Azrael, the sinister black tomcat with burning yellow eyes introduced in Cat in the Dark (1999), has returned to Molena Point, California, to embark on another crime spree with human cohorts while he attempts to find the cat portal to the Netherworld. Kate Osborne, who moved to San Francisco three years earlier to search for information about the parents she has never known, also comes back to the village, obviously troubled and arousing great interest on the part of Azrael. The fast-paced story involves sophisticated burglary, murder, and the bizarre secret of Kate's own nature. Once again the delightful mix of humans, sentient cats, mystery, and humor remains true to the preceding books in the series, only this time with a larger dollop of fantasy, which should extend the audience beyond the usual cat-mystery buffs.
