A middle-aged man with a crusty personality who never thought of himself as a cat lover finds himself won over by a stray white kitten. Sound familiar? Like Cleveland Amory in The Cat Who Came for Christmas ( LJ 10/1/87), Longden relates how he rescued a kitten, Thermal, from the cold rain, describing all the joys and trials of raising a kitten. Although Thermal's imaginary conversations and observations with Longden are quite engaging, the British setting and dialog are not as charming as James Herriott's animal stories, and the narrative is not as amusing as Amory's. This is recommended only for libraries whose patrons demand another man-meets-cat book. See also William S. Burroughs's The Cat Inside and Dee Ready's A Cat's Life: Dulcy's Story , reviewed above.--Ed.
