The wild-and-woolly exploits of the famous (sometimes, "infamous") Faust the Dancing Cat continue. In his second book, this vampire-toothed, shoulder-traveling rescue feline goes to Boston University as a volunteer instructor to challenge freshmen in behavioral psychology. Because of his training repertoire, he is a master demonstrator of what works and why. As Mary Tyler Moore's "Chuckles the Clown" would have said before he "bit the dust," all it takes is "a little song, a little dance, a little seltzer you're your pants." Faust relishes his time with the Fine Arts students who particularly show a keen interest in how what he teaches applies to understanding their lives. Of course, it doesn't hurt that they likewise are his adoring audience. With a developing lawless bent, he physically attacks an unsuspecting victim many times his size, then pulls off his version of breaking and entering at a nursing home, all in the name of a personal quest for his "holy grail." Continuing his kitty crime spree, he invades a funeral home to create a breast-clutching event at the behest of a loved one. If Faust is anything, he is truly loyal and will do almost anything to show it, especially to and for a loved one. Similarly, using his extra-sensory perception and superior cat tactics, he uncovers a con artist who tries to take advantage of his human. In spite of the difficulties of human-cat language differences, he skillfully manages to communicate what he needs to to protect her. All the while, like most cat companions, he physically and emotionally provides therapy, empathy, and comfort to his human and those in need, like an exotic dancer. ... And so much more.Human cat-companions will identify with Faust's idiosyncrasies, antics, talents, and love, and with his sometimes slower-witted human, in this funny, touching, and inspiring book.What Readers Have Said: "Riveting!
