Members Reviews:
Great book for cat lovers!!
Ambrose, the cat, is on his ninth life, and looking for a new home after his last mistress has died. He realizes that his cute and cuddly days have passed their 'sell-by date'. But he's sure he can convince one more person of his value. He sneaks his way into a single fire fighter's house and plans to stay there. His firefighter has found a sweet girl at the local pet store who seems to be a great 'cat whisper' for settling Ambrose into his life for long enough to find a permanent home for Ambrose.
Ambrose has no plans of leaving, and is sure everyone will settle in quit wonderfully if he can just get rid of that terrible 'cougar lady' that his firefighter seems to think he enjoys dating. Through many humorous and worrisome events, love, forgiveness, and 'pet persuasion' Ambrose gets everything perfectly settled.
This is the very best 'cat /pet' book that I've read in a long time!! If you love your cat or other pet, this book is definitely for you!!
what I got from this book
This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
people that are overly obsessed with their figure and weight
What was most disappointing about Sheila Robertss story?
It felt like the main man would only like here because she was now slim.
Which character as performed by Kathleen McInerney was your favorite?
the cat
Any additional comments?
There was way too much emphasis on this womans weight. How very sad. It could have been written in without making it the only reason she could now finally get a man
defiantly a different kind of christmas tale
What did you love best about The Nine Lives of Christmas?
I thought that Ambrose was a great touch he has as much part of the story as the humans were
What other book might you compare The Nine Lives of Christmas to and why?
I think it would.be hard.to compare to one book I think its a combination of so many wonderful stories.
What does Kathleen McInerney bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?
She puts you in the story, keeps you interested with well reading.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I think when this big fireman adopts a cat and slowly starts to care for him you cant help but melt
Any additional comments?
This is definatly a great audio.
