Clark's got a smart dog doing the cooking and household chores (when old Rascal's not contemplating the meaning of life or commenting on his owner's foibles, that is), but lemme tell ya, I've got a cat that's just as smart, if not as doting as any Canis lupus familiaris. As is clearly visible in the photo above, Tigger has a preference for tidily made beds and stacks of books. We're a lot alike in that way, the two of us. And also like me, Tigger prefers fiction to hefty philosophical tomes weighing in on the essence of Catness or ethical treatises on the morality of mouse-catching. We both love a good yarn (get it?!) and since your ever-dutiful Green Apple staff refuses to take side in the age old cat-dog debate, we've added as thoughtful a feline fiction section as the dog shelf Clark previously mentioned.
