Book Review of The Cat Who'll Live Forever : The Final Adventures of Norton, the Perfect Cat, and His Imperfect Human

I laughed, I cried - the final chapter in the 'Norton Trilogy' is a must-read for anyone who has read (or heard) about The Cat Who Went to Paris.

I cried a river while reading this book, but in the end, Gethers' sums it up nicely with these words: "...mostly what I remember about my cat is how much better my life is because he was in it."

Having lost MY beloved cat, who never traveled as wide and far as Norton did, but was nonetheless special to me, those words also ring true.

Thank you Peter Gethers for sharing the story of a remarkable cat named Norton. Those of us lucky enough to be owned by cats will recognise some of lessons Norton taught you as those taught to us by our cats.
