Summary
First the large, powerful feline discovers that, through some strange, inexplicable phenomenon, he now has the ability to understand human language. Then he discovers he can speak it as well! It’s a nightmare for a cat who’d prefer to sleep the day away carefree, but Joe can handle it. That is, until he has the misfortune to witness a murder in the alley behind Jolly’s Deli - and worse, to be seen witnessing it. With all of his nine lives suddenly at risk, Joe’s got no choice but to get to the bottom of the heinous crime - because his mouse-hunting days are over for good unless he can help bring a killer to justice.

I loved this!!!✨🐈🐈⬛🐾🐾🔍
After listening to the sample, I downloaded this title from the ' Included ' list , and I am so glad I did! Shirley Rousseau's writing and Susan Boyce's narration had me feeling extremely anxious for the well-being of certain characters during parts of the story, and so I had to keep listening to find out what happened to them! The crime element of the story begins with a murder, but more is uncovered as you progress through this compelling tale. I confess that I massively binged out on this audiobook! 😅😍
It is a beautifully written supernatural crime/ mystery story, with just the right level of descriptiveness. The characters - both human and feline - are well formed and either lovable, likeable it detestable. The environments, whether indoors, out in nature, in the town or within a building (homes, businesses, library, police station etc) are also described skillfully.
The storyline - whilst involving the supernatural - mostly takes place in the natural world, as experienced by either human or cat. For me, this seemed to make the supernatural elements of the story almost believable.
I believe this is part of a series of stories, and there are more titles in it for me to devour, so I am very much looking forward to finding out what happens next! 😬🫣😅🐾🐾🐾🐈⬛🐈

purrrrfect!
Amazing story, from cats point of view. I loved the descriptions of how cats move and behave, and could see them in my minds eye. The only negative was reference to cats drinking milk - not goid for them! Great, fun listen

Quirky
Enjoyed the quirky storyline but someone should tell the author that the past tense of "wake" is "woke" & not "waked." The narrator's Welsh accent was absolutely appalling. As a professional narrator I would have expected her to have done her research

Interesting
Good story, only mildly spoiled by reader having not the remotest idea of a Welsh accent, thus giving the Welsh character an intermittent Belfast accent, when she remembered to, otherwise the Welsh man had a normal American accent!

Most unusual
When l finally got my head around it, l really enjoyed this novel book. Well thought out flowed well. As a cat lover it seemed almost possible that these cats were capable of all in the storyline.Enjoy.

Shame about the accent
Loved this but clearly the narrator has no clue as to the difference between an Irish and Welsh accent!!!
