Format:Taschenbuch
I first read this under the English title 'Jenny' years ago and it remained in my mind - especially "When in doubt, wash" - and I have just reread it. My memory hadn't played ticks on me with the passage of time, and it remains the treasure I remembered from way back. All of Paul Gallico's books are wonderful, and no-one should miss 'The Snow Goose' and 'The Hand of Mary Constable' (sadly, I think out of print!). Also, his Mrs 'Arris series.
Gallico has entered the mind of the cat without destroying their integrity, mystery and independent natures - there's nothing Walt Disney about this book - and the way he writes is deceptively simple. You can read this book at face value and enjoy it as a 'nice' story, or appreciate it at a deeper philosophical level which is more rewarding.
More than a book about 'cats' for 'cat lovers', this book says a lot about humanity and the lack of it without without preaching. It creeps into your heart and head without any effort at all and, more importantly, without the cloying sentimentality that many writers about animals descend to.
Be warned, though! If you don't like cats, you probably will after this!

Paul Gallico is one of the best writers of cat stories ever. He understands them better than anyone I have ever read or known. My mother bought "The Abandoned" for me when I was a child, hospitalized in a Swiss hospital during a Christmas vacation. She read it to me. Then I read it. As the years went by we have given it as gifts over and over again to other cat appreciators. The chapter "When in Doubt Wash" is priceless and almost eerie in its human perception of how a cat's mind works. This story of Jennie the cat is written for people of all ages from children to adult. It is an adventure and a love story. Once you read this you will want to read more by the author and you won't be disappointed. Start with "The Silent Miaow."
Format:Taschenbuch
Finally!!! I have been looking for this book for many many years but did not know the author. It is a book I read over and over as a child in the 60's and as I am beginning to start my family I wanted to be able to give it to my children and the other children I love. It is a great book about character, love, and the adventure of the unknown.

Simply unforgettable!
Reading this booking was as rewarding as finishing several self-help books. I bathed in tears, hopelessly fell in love with Jennie and became Paul Gallico jealot. Lesen Sie weiter...

Extraordinary! Highly Unique!
I have never been a cat lover, but since I read this book, cats (especially stray ones) have a special place in my heart. The next time you see a stray cat, don't shoo them away. Lesen Sie weiter...

Now ordering my fourth copy
I ordered my third copy in January, 25 years after reading it the first time. As other readers have said, nobody who borrows this book ever returns it. Lesen Sie weiter...
