MOOSHIE: LIFE WITH AN UNCONVENTIONAL CAT A lonely writer. A suicidal kitten. Together they were the perfect interspecies couple. A cat memoir to remember. O n Mother's Day, 1984, author Echo Heron sets out to find the perfect solution to the 12-inch Norwegian wharf rats routinely invading her creekside cottage. Enter Mushu Pork With Pancakes, a.k.a. Mooshie, the Burmese cat with an unusual penchant for dry sherry, English Breakfast tea and mayhem. It doesn't take Heron long to realized that her new feline companion is a true eccentric. With his quirky mix of personalities—Gandhi, Houdini, Einstein, Mel Brooks and Vlad the Impaler, the feline charmer wheedles his way into his human's heart. When the pair embarks on an extended nomadic adventure, cat and human cement a powerful loving bond while braving hurricanes, stalking cougars, automatic gunfire, and deadly rainforest amphibians. Written in Heron's trademark style combining humor and vivid imagery, MOOSHIE is an action-packed cat memoir and love story between a wacky cat and his flawed human—an unforgettable, fast-paced read.
