No More Cats, Please!

With warmth, humor and plenty of photos, Warren Philipson recalls his 70 years with pets. Although the stories are of his and his family’s dogs, fish, turtles, gerbils, a parakeet, a horned lizard and even salamanders, cats have dominated his last quarter century. Of those, you’ll meet cerebral Lassie, disappearing Rex, and Boss, the speedy cat of lesser intelligence. And you’ll spend time with his son’s displaced cat Henry, who, among other achievements, sends Boss into protective custody and so intimidates a pet sitter with 20 years’ experience, she is unable to enter the house. Are Warren’s pet caregiver days over as he plans? Maybe not, considering what his wife is keeping in the garage.

About the Author

Warren retired following two rewarding careers. After being tethered to Cornell University for 30 years, including time as a student, he resigned as a professor and spent the next 20 years as a scientist with the federal government. After retiring he began a blog, Retired--Now What?, writing about growing up, travel, exercise, pets and more. Increasingly, he's shifted toward new research of interest. If you glance at the list of “Blog Post Topics,” you’ll get an idea of the scope to date.
