Review

This feline-tastic book is an adorable and hilarious picture book detailing all of the annoyances cats face during a busy family Christmas. Each page features a clever rhyme and is beautifully illustrative of the narration, full of wit and charm!

As a mega cat lover, I feel like there is also an important tale to tell here: with compassion and empathy, we can enjoy Christmas while not pestering our pets too much, if only our family and guests let them have adequate quiet time in addition to love, and affection.

Make sure to read until the end because every page features a hidden mouse! Enjoy finding these together with your little ones (or, in my case, my cat Olivia who was eager to spot them!).

Highly recommended! Purrfect for kids and adults, too!

Thank you to NetGalley for this review copy. All opinions are my own.

  1. “As a mega cat lover, I feel like there is also an important tale to tell here: with compassion and empathy, we can enjoy Christmas while not pestering our pets too much, if only our family and guests let them have adequate quiet time in addition to love, and affection.”

    Amen! My cats love their quiet time. Izzy always runs away when we have people over. Fortunately, we don’t have visitors often. Because we’re a childless couple, we often go over to our friends’ houses because it’s easier for them. I like staying home, but I like giving Izzy her space and making sure she feels safe.

  2. My children had a few favourite picture books when they were little. Poppy and Sam’s Lift the Flap Christmas book and Ten Minutes Till Bedtime by Peggy Rathmann were always popular, as was our collection of Dr Seuss books.
    I’m sure they would have loved Cat’s Don’t Like Christmas, it sounds like a fun read.
