James Herriot's Cat Stories by James Herriot (1994, Hardcover)

I bought this book because I am a collector of James Herriot's books. He was a Yorkshire veterinarian in England and wrote entertaining stories of his daily life experiences. Once picked up, I find I cannot put the book down. I would recommend James Herriot's series of books for people of all ages.

Fantastic little book, moving, sometimes funny, sometimes tragic. My husband and I, cat lovers, read these tales together, and, even after 41 years of marriage, they made us feel closer.

It is a beautiful book that I intend to give as a gift. Most of the stories were already in the other Herriot books.

James Herriot has written countless stories regarding the animals he loved and cared for in his practice over the years. This book compiles the stories of cats. I love to lie with my son and read his work. We have cried many times at the end of many, many stories. If you love cats, as we do, you will love this book. In particular, we loved the story called 'Buster' the most. We are lucky enough to own a rescued feral cat my son named 'Niellie' who is just like Buster. Take time to pause for the claws, The Hagen family

my friend is a cat lover and she had not read james herriot's books so i thought this would be a good start.

I bought this book for my sister's granddaughter who is turning 2. I haven't read the book itself but I have read all of James Herriot's from which this compilation is collected and I love his writing. My sister and her daughter and thus her granddaughter love cats, love reading and love cat stories, so what better book to buy for Christmas than this wonderful book!

I just love cats! Any book by Herriot is bound to be excellent and I was not
disappointed. I actually bought it for my sister and brother who are mentally
challenged. Now they are enjoying it!!

I love the way James Herriot brings you right into the story - the characters
are so perfectly described, and the animals are portrayed with humor, pathos
and great affection. This is a man I would have loved to have known - a man
of generous spirit and good humor, and tremendous compassion. He also has
a wonderful touch with the common man - a real gem of a read, good for kids too!

Truly a beautiful book by James Herriot. He's one of my favourite authors, especially for people who love animals and/or are considering a career in veterinary medicine.
