Publisher Description
Includes 10 illustrations by Barbara Knox
A delightful, whimsical tale—one of the most popular books for cat lovers ever written.
May Sarton's fictionalized account of her cat Tom Jones's life and adventures prior to making the author's acquaintance begins with a fiercely independent, nameless street cat who follows the ten commandments of the Gentleman Cat—including "A Gentleman Cat allows no constraint of his person, not even loving constraint." But after several years of roaming, Tom has grown tired of his vagabond lifestyle, and he concludes that there might be some appeal after all in giving up the freedom of street life for a loving home. It will take just the right human companion, however, to make his transformation from Cat About Town to genuine Fur Person possible. Sarton's book is one of the most beloved stories ever written about the joys and tribulations inherent in sharing one's life with a cat.

Sweet
For cat lovers and Fur Persons everywhere.
Love this book
I read this book for school and it is one of the few reads I’ve done for a class that I absolutely loved! I read it in one sitting:)
Highly recommended book!
I LOVED this book. My mother read it and told me about it many years ago, but I had never taken the time to read it. So now, my mom is gone and as I finally read this, I think about how I would like to tell her that I, too, found the Fur Person DELIGHTFUL! If you have ever tried to get into a beloved cat’s head, this story is for you.
