Mog's Christmas: 01/18/15

cover artMog's Christmas by Judith Kerr is the sequel to Mog the Forgetful Cat. This is a great book fans of the recent A Very Fuddles Christmas looking for another book involving a cat confused by Christmas.

Mog's territory is once again being invaded. This time it's by a giant tree, and decorations, and presents. What's a cat to do but run away! Or in Mog's case, climb onto the roof to wait things out.

In all my years of having Christmas in a home with a cat or two, I've never had a cat on the roof. I did have one cat who fell off the balcony and got lost during a barbecue. The point though is that change can be hard on cats. They have a reputation for being aloof but they really can be put off their game during the holidays, or if there are house guests.
