It's thought that there are over ten million domestic cats in the
United Kingdom therefore Te Harrison-Best's new collection of
feline poems titled Catawall at very least should have a vast
ready-made audience among owners. If you've kept a dog and cat at
the same time you will be only too aware how different in nature
these creatures are. Basically, the faithful hound is a camp
follower, awaiting orders while the cunning kitty strolls off to do
its own thing. Does this make the cat a much more interesting and
independent creature? All the evidence would suggest so and this
colourful assortment of verse helps make the case. However, before
we get over-slushy and sentimental on the topic of cats (which is
easy to do) one or two interesting facts are worth considering.
It's thought that every year the average domestic cat kills up to
forty small feathery or furry creatures. But remember their
antecedents included the sabre-toothed tiger and apologists will
tell you they are still only doing what comes naturally. And did
you know that researchers at Bristol have found that cat owners
tend to be more intelligent than dog owners? Not because of close
contact with the wily pussies but simply because they have been
better educated, tend of work longer hours and so have less time to
spend with their pets; thus the low maintenance, independent moggie
best fits requirements.
