Cats in the Parsonage

by Clair, Clair Shaffer, Jr.

Taffy and Tiffany came into their lives over a decade ago, and nothing has been the same since! These two little rascals have brought joy and delight into the lives Clair and his wife Brenda as only two lovable kitties could. As the years have gone by, this country preacher and his wife have learned valuable lessons and enjoyed many hours of hilarity watching the antics of their two little furballs as they lovingly call them. You'll chuckle and you'll be touched by their delightful stories, but above all you'll discover the significance of Clair's favorite verse, "Ask the animals and they will teach you" (Job 12:17)

I do find it sad that we didn’t hear about the other outdoor cats after they took tiff and taffy in. What happened to them? why were they not at least taken to a shelter where they could be adopted as well? Also why wasn’t Sammy immediately taken to the hospital. The poor cat suffered all night while the humans decided what to do. Even if it was to be ‘expensive’ then why not pool the neighborhoods money to pay for the car Sammy needed.

This is a true story of a pastor and his wife and the indoor/outdoor kitties they have loved throughout the years, as well as the lessons the cats taught them.

This was a slow read for me, and I didn't enjoy it as much as I'd thought I would.

Good book, good theology. Some sad stories related, but that's truly life. A lot of heart-warming stories, too. Fairly well written.

What do you think. Its a waste of time. You gotta think a pastor would have a have a life.
