A Cat Named Birdie by Chris Nelson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

A cat named birdie - the author expresses delight and wonderment at the great range of behaviours, ranging from comical and hilarious, to tender and even moving, exhibited by his former budgie and his present rescue cat from the humane society of Ottawa. even though they are separated in time and space, and the persons who appear in the stories are not the same anymore, in the author's imagination, it is all just like yesterday, so that the lines become blurred between yesterday and today. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the first poem, a cat named birdie, where the author imagines himself training his present cat to get along in peace and harmony with his former budgie, concluding that it would be to the cat's credit if it could be done he says. | A Cat Named Birdie by Chris Nelson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
