By Allen and Linda Anderson
Angel Cats: Divine Messengers of Comfort
Book Description From The Publisher
While dogs get more credit, cats have perennially proven themselves to be every bit the equal of their canine brethren as humankind's best friend. Angel Cats, inspired by a contest authors Allen and Linda Anderson ran to find the "Best Angel Cat" story, shows the often extraordinary ways in which these fascinating creatures have responded to human need. Stories feature Paprika, the kitten that may have saved a little Hungarian girl from Russian soldiers; the cat who helped a woman make friends in a hostile workplace; the cats who acted as "pacemakers" for a sleeping woman with undiagnosed heart problems; and many more. Interwoven with the stories are brief meditations as well as fun facts about cats, such as that cats purr at the same frequency that increases bone density and strengthens and heals fractures. An "Ask Cuddles" section answers frequently asked questions about the fabulous feline.

Comforting Cat Companions!
Lucky, the healer, - Alexander the amusing entertainer, Alpha radiates love and understanding, - Shadow demonstrates humility and trust, - Hocus, the hero's friendship is steadfast and true. These and other angelic cat tales fill this innovative "up close and personal " look at cats and their comforting connection to their human friends and companions. The stories are all true. Meditations and questions answered by Cuddles, the cat editor after each chapter enhance the inspirational beauty of this book. I especially like the chapters, "Is Life Better When We Curl Up Together?" - and "Do We Get Help To Heal Life's Scratches?" The book is a must- read for cat lovers and for all who appreciate uplifting writing. The Andersons have created yet another fine book in their Angelanimals series. Highly recommended.

Prepare To Shed A Few Tears
Religious scholars have never said that angels can assume feline form, or cats can be raised to such lofty level, cat-owners have always known the truth.

Cat lovers, your secret is out.
Now everyone will know why you're crazy over cats!
Read true stories about a feline friend helping a man get his "purr" back, a cat miraculously protecting and comforting a young girl during the Holocaust, a mother-daughter cat team serving as a woman's heart specialists, sister cats coaxing a major league baseball player through a losing season, and a cat named Cuddles who writes her own advice column. Angel Cats proves that cats are as compassionate as they are curious.
