Welcome to Cattyshack&rsquo;s Catty Book Club 📚🐾 Since we skipped July,&nbsp;August will be a DOUBLE FEATURE!&nbsp; We&rsquo;ll discuss Agnes Aubert&#39;s Mystical Cat Shelter by Heather Fawcett AND - Seafurrers by Philippa Sandall&nbsp; About Agnes Aubert&#39;s Mystical Cat Shelter -&nbsp;Agnes Aubert leads a meticulously organized life&mdash;and she likes it that way. As the proudly type-A manager of a much-needed cat rescue charity, she has devoted her life to finding forever homes for lost cats. But after she is forced to move the cat shelter, Agnes learns that her new landlord is using her charity as a front&mdash;for an internationally renowned and thoroughly disreputable magic shop. Owned by the disorganized&mdash;not to mention self-absorbed, irritating, but also decidedly handsome&mdash;Havelock Renard, magician and failed Dark Lord, the shop draws magical clientele from around the world, partly due to the quality of Havelock&rsquo;s illicit goods as well as their curiosity about his shadowy past and rumors of his incredible powers. Agnes&#39;s charity offers the perfect cover for illegal magics.&nbsp;Agnes couldn&rsquo;t care less about the shop&mdash;magical intrigue or not, there are cats to be rescued. But when an enemy from Havelock&rsquo;s past surfaces, the magic shop&mdash;and more importantly, the cat shelter&mdash;are suddenly in jeopardy. To save the shelter, will Agnes have to set aside her social conscience and protect the man who once tried to bring about the apocalypse&mdash;and is now trying to steal her heart? About Seafurrers - A cat&rsquo;s-eye view of maritime history. We remember the bold seafarers of yore&mdash;from Magellan to Shackleton&mdash;for their extraordinary new lands discovered, storms weathered, and battles won. But somehow history has neglected the stalwart, hardworking species who made it all possible . . . yes, the noble cat! In Seafurrers, able sea cat Bart sets the record straight at last. &ldquo;Fear of water&rdquo; aside, cats were indispensable at sea&mdash;both as pest controllers and as beloved mascots. Thirty&ndash;eight tales recount the adventures of Trim (who circumnavigated Australia), Tom (the sole feline survivor of the sinking of the USS Maine ), celebrity cat Simon (a veteran of the Yangtze Incident), and other furry heroes. Filled with nautical trivia, rare photographs, and whimsical illustrations, this deft genealogy of human&ndash;feline friendship will stir your regard for the incomparable cat&mdash;whether on the couch or in the crow&rsquo;s nest!
