Color These Cats Medieval: New Coloring Book for Cat Lovers
Today we have just a few words to say about the new Medieval Cats Coloring Book for Cat Lovers,
and those words are as follows:
What great fun!
And now, a few more words
Okay, we couldn’t really contain ourselves to only three
words about this coloring book, because we think this is the neatest cat-themed
thing we’ve seen recently. The 8.5 x 11–inch book includes twenty different

Book Review: The Big Bag of Infinite Cats
You know what would be great? If you had a very special
knitting bag that, in times of trouble, you could open and out would pop a cat
to clear up whatever your trouble was.
Yes, I know it sounds far-fetched, but this is the basic
premise in Willem Thomas’s short e-book, The Big Bag of Infinite Cats. But in this story, only one person has such a
special bag: Miss Mayra Beeweather, a former
knitting bag that, in times of trouble, you could open and out would pop a cat
to clear up whatever your trouble was.

Book Review: Crime and Poetry
Sometimes I get all tingly inside when we get to review a
new book in a brand-new series, and this is one of those times. Amanda Flower,
whom you might know as Isabella Alan, author of the Amish Quilt Shop Mysteries,
is introducing a new series that includes a little bookshop, a little magic, a
little mystery, and most importantly for our purposes, a little cat. It’s
called the Magical

App Review: Ghost Towns: The Cats of Ulthar Collector’s Edition
We have spent the past two weeks or so completely obsessed
with this app, Ghost Towns: The Cats of Ulthar. If you enjoy puzzles and
hidden-object games, if you like a game that also gives you a story, and if you
don’t mind spending some money (about seven dollars to play on iPad), this one
is worth looking at.
