Shep: A Cat's Tale

by Phil Syphe

Shep the cat and a man with no name or notion cause chaos during a series of misadventures. Could paint-sniffing sessions coupled with consuming copious quantities of Cointreau have anything to do with the human and feline duo's bizarre escapades?

"Shep: A Cat's Tale" features a shared narrative, mainly related by a man obsessed with railings, while a couple of chapters come straight from the feline's mouth.

Note: this book is not for young children!
