This is a story told by an 8 year old Tom cat living with his single mistress, My Lady Ann, as he refers to her.  This is a very smart cat very upset with his mistress' latest boyfriend and he sets out to break them up and pick a higher evolved mate for ann.  In this case, just about anything would have been a higher evolved mate. The cat is funny and it is interesting to see his point of view on things.  I had no problems with him.  In fact he is probably the smartest one in this story and definitely has higher morals and standards.However, his mistress' has the morals of something lower than an alley cat.  She breaks up with one boyfriend that she was having sex with the night they broke up and a week later she tries to take down the lawyer 2 flights down while in a drunken state.  I just had a problem with her willingness to have sex with just about anything that walked.  Her best friend, a 30 year old valley girl came across as stupid and completely unable to speak a complete sentence.  I know everyone needs a friend, but to think you are going to hook this chick up with a college educated lawyer is a bit of a stretch.Plus, our Lady Ann has the maturity level of an 11 year old.  she is dating the lawyer hot and heavy, a woman shows up on her doorstep asking for him and she throws everything away because he didn't tell her he was engaged YEARS ago and that this woman is happily married and was in town briefly and stopped by to say hello.  She never even gave him a chance to explain this woman and then when she did she acted like he just sold her first born.  Are you kidding me?  Her previous boyfriend was eating at her house most days of the week, she did his laundry, she had sex with him, they NEVER went out anywhere, he was not only stealing from her but freeloading as well and she lets him hang around until the cat trips him up and she finds out he was cheating as well.  But she didn't have problems with all of that?In my head I just have her pictured not as a fairly decent human being that you would want to introduce your friends to but a slutty nut case.  I really didn't see any chemistry between two of them or why he would even get involved with her.  I liked the cat and really hope things wind up going well for him.  As for the humans in the story, not so much.  I did quit reading when she started getting calls for the old boyfriend from bill collectors trying to get money from her for his debts.  She didn't sign anything for him why would she think she owed anyone anything?  And when her valley girl friend suggest she ask the lawyer for help, she informs her she is still mad at him and so to not speak to him would make him suffer a little longer.  She wants him to suffer for something he didn't even do and she is painting him with the same brush as the loser ex.  Just don't get the rational.  I quit reading.  Quite frankly, I hope he moved out of the apartment building, takes her cat with him and he never sees her again!  That would be a HEA.
