I love the cat's point of view writing! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delightful *by J***I on Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2022* This is the kind of "Children's Story" that will delight adults as much as, if not more than, it delights children. A biography of a stray cat who became a pet, with, undoubtedly, some background from before he came into the lives of the author and her housemate that is undoubtedly created from the author's imagination but which seems utterly plausible, told, largely, from the cat's perspective. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As Good As Anything May Sarton Ever Wrote *by F***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2010* In this short charming story of the life of one Tom Jones, a cat named after the literary figure by the same name because both were foundlings, the prolific May Sarton is writing at her best. In sparse but eloquent prose, she lets the reader inside the head and heart of this special feline-- based on her own cat of course-- and simultaneously lets you into her big heart as well. The story ultimately is about a cat, who after a life in the streets, decides to settle down and, by trial and error, finally selects a home and his "housekeepers," certainly an appropriate word since anyone who knows anything about cats knows that at best they are housemates and never owned by anyone. "A Gentleman Cat is never hasty when choosing a housekeeper." These housekeepers are identified by Tom as "Brusque Voice," (May Sarton) and "Gentle Voice," (her companion Judy Matlack) and if it is not a relationship made in heaven, it certainly is not a marriage made in hell. Tom wants to abandon his life as a Cat About Town and become a Cat of Peace as well as a Gentleman Cat. A very bright cat, Tom does yoga and composes songs. He also has The Ten Commandments of the Gentleman Cat that he lives by; and in the end, adds an Eleventh Commandment as well which gives this charming story its ultimate meaning.Ms. Sarton's journals are filled with references to her animals. She obviously was wise when it came to understanding them and manages to avoid, unlike so many writers about cats, the cutesy-- a word one would never use to describe anything about this writer anyway--but tells a moving story without being sentimental. This is quite simply as good a story as you will find about a quasi-fictional cat. In her introduction to this new edition, Ms. Sarton says that she was gratified when a nine-year-old child wrote her to tell her that this is the best book the youngster had ever read. You can read it in one sitting with your own cat in your lap. Or better still, why not read it aloud to a child.An added treat to this edition is the lush watercolor illustrations of Jared Taylor Williams. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/10611017-the-fur-person](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/10611017-the-fur-person) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
