How to Apologize to a Cat - Book Launch!

RSVP ON THE LIBRARY WEBSITE NOW!

Did you know that every 3.5 seconds, someone, somewhere is apologizing to a cat? Well. Maybe not. But anyone who has lived with a cat, or in a household overflowing with cats, knows that cats have very high standards regarding their humans, and expect those standards to be assiduously met. Join Deborah Barchi, former Director of Barrington Public Library, on Sunday, March 15 for a launch of her new book How to Apologize to a Cat.

Cats are remarkable animals. They are also beautiful enigmas. In this delightful guidebook, learn about the things that might upset a cat, what you can do to avoid such upsets, and how to go about appeasing an indignant feline. Interspersed with lively quotations from famous cat lovers, tips on bird watching, support on how to say "no" to a cat, and what the " ten commandments of cats" can teach us about respecting and understanding a cat's view of the world, this book is a celebration and appreciation for our remarkable feline companions.
Deborah will be sharing from her book and talking about the process she went through to self-publish.

Books will be available for sale.

Free and open to all. Please register.
