From School Library Journal
PreS-Gr 1—An orange cat is adopted, but oh dear—so is a blue dog. A boy takes both animals home. The cat struggles to demonstrate how felines are superior to dogs. For instance, a cat is self-entertaining (illustrated by claw marks across upholstery), while a dog plays fetch with its owner. A dog gets dirty, but a cat is self-cleaning. The cat tries different ways to steal attention away from the dog until the boy gives her a sparkly necklace. The cat decides that the canine can stay and might even be a perfect friend, particularly when she gets lonely. This simple tale of cat vs. dog, told from the feline's perspective, is illustrated in a childlike style, with bold swashes of color, loops and squiggles for shading, and thick lines. VERDICT A short and silly pet tale sure to please young pet lovers.—Mindy Hiatt, Salt Lake County Library Services
