Reflections of a Feline Being

What makes Reflections of a Feline Being so entertaining is its blend of feline philosophy and biting commentary on human behavior. It’s a satire dressed up in fur, with clever insights that poke fun at both pets and their people. While it’s full of humor, there’s also a thread of poignant reflection on loyalty, boundaries, and finding balance in shared spaces.

"Reflections of a Feline Being" by Paula Grover is a hilarious and insightful look at the world through the eyes of a discerning cat. Miaurra, our regal protagonist, narrates her daily struggles with her human "servants." With a dry wit and a touch of feline disdain, she chronicles their endless parade of blunders and the infuriatingly unpredictable nature of their behavior. Grover masterfully captures the essence of cat-human dynamics. Miaurra's observations are both witty and relatable, from her disdain for the "scratching post contraption" to her frustration with the humans' obsession with "the glowing box" (television). The book is a delightful read for any cat lover, offering a humorous and insightful perspective on the often-bewildering world of humans.

Beautifully illustrated. Brilliantly observed, funny story. Fantasy animal fiction at it's best. The tale of a cat who believes the human den she shares are her servants. A cat's adventure told by the cat itself, from loathing a new interloper kitten and canine, to learning to live peacefully with every being in the human den. Would highly recommend.

Having recently lost our beloved cat “Boo Boo,” I found this unexpected gem to be uplifting with its humorous perspective from the cat’s point of view. The author achieves this by reversing the role of humans and cats with the latter being the true dominant species that has deceived us lesser humans into thinking we are in charge. The book’s many vignettes, e.g., the litterbox repulsion or cat’s anger at a kitten’s intrusion into its domain, make this simple story a masterpiece for cat lovers. I applaud it for its humor and spirituality when we realize our cats are only visiting us from their spiritual abode before returning to that abode. The perfect salve for healing our sorrows when our crafty feline friends return to their spiritual abode.

Reflections of a Feline Being is an absolute delight for cat lovers! The story, narrated by Miaurra, a regal and highly intelligent feline, provides a humorous and insightful look into life from a cat’s point of view. The dynamics between Miaurra and her human “servants” are both amusing and relatable, especially when they disrupt her well-ordered life by introducing an unwelcome guest. This book perfectly captures the essence of feline independence and superiority, making it a must-read for anyone who appreciates the quirks and personalities of cats.

Reflections of A Feline Being by Paul Grover is both interesting and humorous. The narrative is told from the point of view of a cat, and the events are the everyday events you might expect a cat to experience. The story is entertaining, but I couldn’t help thinking it might have been better if it was more than just a sequence of events, if the cat wanted something, had a character flaw, and an antagonist plotted against it. It is not enough to have a cat doing what cats usually do. A story needs conflict. To keep the reader engaged, there has to be a question that needs to be answered. The idea behind the story is excellent, and the writing is good. I loved the way Mirruna changed at the end.

This is a fun book for cat lovers. It's a book both adults and kids will love. I'd recommend it for a family road trip to be read out loud for everyone. The MC cat is hilarious in the way he thinks. If you've owned multiple indoor cats, you might even think you recognize this cat. I recommend this book for everyone.

I loved the story of Mirruna, Canus, and Ra-Ra. It was adorable--I was in emotional tension at the end, and I found the story had a very satisfying emotional arc. I think this would be a really fun book for middle-graders and even those just beginning to practice with more difficult chapter books--fourth or fifth graders and maybe even up to sixth or seventh. It is very cute and very fun, and I really enjoyed (definitely recommend for those who are big fans of cats! The author's felines' personalities are spot on!)

This book is different. I found the story to be a heartwarming tale of friendship across species. The story blends adventure and reflection with relatable characters and universal themes. It covers Miaurras journey from doubt to acceptance and RaRas lively spirit bring joy. At times I found the pace of the book a little slow at times and the simplicity of the plot may not appeal to those seeking more in-depth story. The way it covers loyalty and forgiveness is touching showing the value of kindness. Overall its a good read for those who enjoy heart warming stories.
