Call of the Cats: What I Learned about Life and Love from a Feral Colony by Andrew Bloomfield

5.0

I really enjoyed this book which is saying a lot because I don't normally like nonfiction. This is not a book for the fainthearted. The author does not disguise the horrors of felines living in the wild trying to survive what is wild. However, he adds in sections about his life in India and other countries where he studied before settling in California. He weaves those into the stories he tells about the cats. He and his housemates name all of the cats, and his descriptions of them help the reader picture all of the personalities. It gives the readers an accurate picture of the feral community.
