Title: Euthanize these 'cats'
Product review: It was some years ago that I read one or two of the "Cat Who..." books, and surely they must have had more to recommend them than the current installment, "The Cat Who Tailed a Thief." Otherwise, I'd have remembered never to pick up another. The NY Times reviewer is wrong about this one; not even the "kitty porn" is sufficient to compensate for the lack of suspense, character development, and decent dialogue. The evildoers are evident in the first chapter, yet by the end nothing is revealed of the 'why' or 'how' of their crimes. Two people die in the book, for heaven's sake, and more exposition is given to the petty theft of a doll and other knickknacks. I'd recommend that cat lovers like myself look to authors such as Cleveland Amory for their feline fix, and seek their mysteries elsewhere
