Fluffy's Tails

FLUFFY is a toughie, Mandee is handee, Toulouse is on the loose and Merlot is on the go! These are just some of the things Mary Lou’s cats get into and up to in her book for new and beginning readers. I decided to write this book many, many years ago. I thought about it a long time. Finally, after being retired a while, I decided to “make it so”.


It contains stories about four of my cats. Three have passed away and Merlot Henry Lawrence is still with Mary Lou. He will turn 14 in October. Fluffy was a Maine Coon and lived 21 years. Mandee was a beautiful calico cat. She had diabetes and lived to 13. Toulouse Thomas Lawrence Roy had kidney problems and died earlier this year. Toulouse and Merlot are brothers and are Ragdoll cats.


While I worked in the field of Medical Libraries and Computer Science, my heart has always been in working with very young children. This was my impetuous in writing a children’s book. I hope you enjoy reading it to and with your children, grandchildren or even among cat lovers. I have always believed that READING is FUNdamental!
