Austin and his buddy, Tigger

I absolutely love everything about the blog, CATachresis. Carolyn, the human author of the blog, is British and her dry wit and keen sense of humor ranks her at the top of my list as favorite blogs to visit. Her cat, Austin, is a handsome tuxedo of mixed lineage and his bored take on his own blog always leaves me in stitches. He constantly has Carolyn in one predicament after another looking after him, and he just does not seem to care when he is ruffling her feathers!

When she offered to review The Chronicles of Zee & Zoey for me, I was instantly intrigued, as I wondered what brilliant new words and catch phrases I would learn from her this time! Well, here it is – read it for yourself as Carolyn and Austin share their views on the book! Click here for review.

Ingrid & I at BlogPaws 2011 in Tysons Corner, VA

While in the scheme of life, I have actually only known Ingrid King of the Conscious Cat a short amount of time, I feel we have shared a life time of friendship. Ingrid has been so kind and supportive of both my blog, Zee and Zoey’s Chronicle Connection, as well as my book, The Chronicles of Zee & Zoey. So much so, as a matter of fact, Ingrid actually read the book in draft form before it went to print and graciously provided me with a back cover quote.

Keep in mind, when Ingrid first read the book, it was a raw version without the wonderful design aspect and stunning photos that the book is filled with. Despite that, she enjoyed the book for the story as it was, without all the embellishments. So, when I received the actual printed books, I could not wait to send  her one to touch, absorb, hold, and read. I was quite proud of my accomplishment and was so thrilled when she contacted me to let me know how much she loved the finished product!

In what is a continuing series of reviews that my book is taking in its cat blogosphere tour, please stop by the Conscious Cat today to read Ingrid’s take on the book and to enter a comment for a chance to win an autographed copy!

I met Christine Michaels of Riverfront Cats as I have most of my new cat loving friends – through blogging. Christine is an incredible young woman who has taken it upon herself to care for a colony of feral and stray cats in the Miami Riverfront area. When I was nominated for a Petties Award for “Best Designed Blog,” she was my chosen recipient, had I won the award. While I did not win the money to help with her cause, I did win a friend for life. I admire Christine enormously and when she took time out of her busy schedule to review my book, I was honored. Her opinin  means the world to me and it is my hope that I can help her in her crusade to help educate people on the epidemic of cat overpopulation and the crucial need for spaying and neutering.

I share with you Christine’s take on my book – please take the time and come read it. She really absorbed the story from start to finish and what she took from it makes me so happy and so proud. My book is meant to inspire the reader and she really hit the nail on the head with her intrepeation! Please click here to read the post
