"Simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming, not to mention funny throughout, Knisley's illustrations of life with a spoiled cat are relatable to anybody who has ever loved an animal." --Booklist "[A] funny, touching saga that explores what it means to care for a beloved four-legged companion through thick and thin." --BookPage "Nestled amidst the hilarity of cat antics is the emotional connection people have with their finicky little fur balls. Knisley's love for Linney is heartwarming and will likely have her fellow felinophiles snuggling their own kitties." --Shelf Awareness
