No One Noticed the Cat Anne McCaffrey 9780843959031 Books

This is a long fairy tale or a fantasy novella. I've always enjoyed Anne McCaffrey's style and find most of her books easy to read and hard to put down, so short can be good (gets me back to the things I should be doing faster). Young adults are probably the intended audience, the innuendo may exclude children and possibly tweens (parent's call really). I suspect kids who like the warrior cat series might like this book. I enjoyed reading it, which is the point when I buy fiction novels, after all. The child in me just can't resist good versus evil fairy tales with happily-ever-after endings. And a cat as one of the good guys makes the animal lover in me smile.

There were a couple unresolved issues--namely the baby and Fanina--but then life can't always be neat with all the loose ends tied up, even in a fantasy world. More information on what a magnificat is would be nice, but working it in would probably have been too contrived. Salinah's behavior at the end seemed out of character, but maybe not. The point may be that outwardly strong, self-sufficient folks who seem least likely to ever need help/emotional support may actually be the most likely to need it when traumatized because they don't have the confidantes and other support in place to help them deal with it.

No One Noticed the Cat Anne McCaffrey 9780843959031 Books Reviews

This is a fun fantasy book, I know it's written for kids, but I have enjoyed reading it several times as an adult. I recently bought it as a gift for a young lady who had her tonsils out. She has been enjoying reading it with her family and I have had reports that all are enjoying it.
For a Cat Book - it's good. Generally I believe it's for adolescents. But the story is capturing and entertaining.
Gave book as a gift to another cat lover and a lover of Anne McCaffrey's dragon books. She said it was a fun read.
The basic premise of this short little novella is that the very wise old regent of Esphania leaves behind a very special cat to help guide the young prince, Jamas, through the trials that he'll face as ruler of his country. The big trial that Jamas must face in this story is the danger presented by a sinister and ambitious queen who is willing to dispose of anyone who happens to be in her way. The cat is, of course, integral to the downfall of queen. The title is a bit of a misnomer, as Prince Jamas and some of his closest friends are well aware of the important part played by Niffy (the cat).

Without delving into magic and wizards, it still maintains that essence of make-believe that all fairytales have. An excellent little book to read to children or a quick shot of feel-good reading for adults. There was no content that I would object to as a mother of a young child, but the writing has enough complexity to not bore a more mature reader.
This McCaffrey is new to me. Very good read, I have not found a single book of hers that I have not enjoyed. Sat up reading till the wee hours.
Anne McCaffrey has been one my favorite fantasy (and scifi) novelists for a long time (sorry she's not with us anymore). This book I would call a novelette as it fairly short. The story doesn't have very many surprising turns, but it's enjoyable and the characters are good as usual with McCaffrey. If you're looking for a light, quick read maybe pick this one up.
What a fun book!! I loved this one. The plot is busy and lots of action occurs. But the cat was always present in the background.
The cat notices everything and everyone. Of course, there is an evil one and he was unaware of the cat's talents. The cat manages some
trickery of its own and thwarts the evil plot.

The kids will like this book. I certainly did. It will put a smile on your face. Of course, there is enough suspense to make things interesting. This has made a good addition to my McCaffery collection. It is easy to read.
