The Cat Who Went To Paris/A Cat Abroad

Description for THE CAT WHO WENT TO PARIS & A CAT ABROAD by Peter Gethers:

When Peter Gether's girlfriend surprised him with a gift of a small, furry gray kitten, soon to be named Norton, he had no idea that this feline would eventually tour two continents; find himself on the "A" list of desirable celebrities who stay at the ultra-chic Four Seasons Hotel In Los Angeles; be feted with a Pounce pizza at Spago by superstar chef Wolfgang Puck; and, most importantly, change his owner's life forever.

Now to celebrate the publication of the third Norton book, THE CAT WHO'LL LIVE FOREVER, all of Norton's earlier adventures are bound together in this reissue of the bestselling books, THE CAT WHO WENT TO PARIS, and its continuation, A CAT ABROAD.  in these pages readers are introduced to Norton, whose feline charms and unique relationship with the author delighted cat lovers---and even cat haters---everywhere as he traipsed around the globe with his devoted human, finding new worlds and new people to conquer.  Along the way to exotic and very uncatlike places---from walking the beaches of Fire Island to taking the Concord to Paris, where the staff at the ritzy Tremoille Hotel tends to his every whim---Norton takes in the world around him with an air of benevolent amusement not generally associated with those of the feline persuasion and has a profound effect on all who come in contact with him.

By the time of his death at age sixteen, Norton had gained such celebrity and touched so many with his calm, lovable demeanor that he garnered an obituary in The New York Times and inspired a calendar, Norton's Journey.  His tale is not only one of the unique adventures of an unforgettable feline, it also is a touching, heartwarming story of a mutually nurturing friendship and the remarkable bond that can develop between one extraordinary cat and his human.
