Milli ons more watched their story on television news and talk shows. Since their first book, Philip and Ginny have been hard at work, carrying out their most incre dible rescues - and their lives have changed in wonderful ways. The Blessing of the Animals is the story of their remarkable successes, from the back alleys o f their Long Island cat-feeding stations to the backstage corridors of the Sally Jessy Raphael show. Philip and Ginny have become the world's most popular cat -rescue team. When Philip adopted Ginny from a local animal shelter, he knew right away that she was no ordinary dog. Ginny's amazing sixth sense enabled her to sniff out abandoned and disabled cats, and before long Philip had devoted his life to rescuing and caring for cats in need. Today they feed over one hundre d outdoor cats and have brought twenty into their own home; one is blind, one is deaf, one has no rear paws, but they are all part of the family. Since The Do g Who Rescues Cats, Philip and Ginny's rescues have grown even more heroic. There was Beige, a frightened stray stranded in a flooded lot after the blizzard o f '96; two kittens plucked from the backseat of an abandoned car; and Chairman, a tiny kitten whom Ginny sniffed out in a carton full of broken glass.

| Italian Version of The Dog Who Rescues Cats.
Cane (il) che salvava i gatti
Questa è la storia incredibile e commuovente di una bastardina di nome Ginny che salvava gatti randagi, abbandonati, menomati, per restituirli a una vita serena.
Ed è anche la storia di Philip Gonzalez, il quale, in seguito a un incidente sul lavoro che l’aveva lasciato parzialmente invalido, aveva perso ogni interesse per la vita.
E’ la storia del loro incontro, avvenuto in un triste canile dove Ginny, dopo varie traversie, era imprigionata.
Questa straordinaria avventura ha avuto inizio con la prima passeggiata insieme: Ginny condusse Philip verso un’area non edificata dove trovò una micia randagia e convinse Philip a darle da mangiare. In capo a due mesi i due nutrivano tutta una frotta di gatti stradaioli.

With the same sly humor and deep affection that have enchanted readers of Cleveland Amory's earlier, bestselling accounts of his adventures with his curmudgeonly cat, Polar Bear, the author here reflects on his life and on the many ways in which it was enriched by fifteen years of his feline friend's companionship. The Best Cat Ever is Amory's best book ever -- the witty and wise conclusion to a wonderful love story. |

First published in paperback by Penguin in 1988, The Cat Who Came for Christmas captured the #1 position on the New York Times bestseller list that year for twelve weeks, and, since its hardcover publication, has leaped onto the list an extraordinary five times.
Written by Cleveland Amory, self-confessed curmudgeon and dog owner, The Cat Who Came for Christmas is the enchanting story of Amory's encounter with a stray cat in a debris—filled alley one Christmas Eve—and their subsequent life together. Walter Anderson in Parade described The Cat Who Came for Christmas as "A classic. This extraordinary true story will touch your heart and your funny bone—all at once."
Fans of this classic tale include Walter Cronkite, Paul Harvey, Doris Day—and, of course, the more than one million Americans who have made The Cat Who Came for Christmas a perennial bestseller. |

| Unforgettable Mutts speaks on behalf of the millions of loving and deserving dogs who may never have a chance simply because they have no pedigree. According to The Humane Society of the United States, approximately 75% of all dogs entering U.S. animal shelters each year are mixed-breed. While some are adopted, tragically one to two million mutts are euthanized every year. This startling statistic is fueled in part by the long- standing misconception that if a dog doesn't have a pedigree than he or she must be somehow defective. But as author, Karen Derrico clearly illustrates, nothing could be further from the truth. Page after page of Unforgettable Mutts proves that it's a dog's personality, not the pedigree, that matters. |

When art and compassion converge, there is no telling what kind of magic will spring forth. In the case of author/artist Emily Eve Weinstein, that convergence results in her latest labor of love, DOG BOOK. In Dog Book, Weinstein showcases her original oil paintings and her related tales of dogs found on highways and in shelters, of dogs abandoned and then rescued, even of dogs that rescue others. From the unadoptable mutt who finally finds a home in the Search and Rescue dogs of 9/11, Dog Book offers us a compelling and often amusing glimpse into the life of over 60 remarkable canines and their people. Combining captivating prose with oil paintings and pencil drawings of her subjects and inspired by those subjects she so intuitively portrays, Weinstein masterfully manages to bridge the gap between artist and essayist. “Each dog became my muse,” Weinstein says. “Animal neglect and abuse are all too common. My greatest hope is to educate without lecturing or serving a double dose of saccharine. I hope my readers find themselves in my words and images and join in helping make this a better world for all beings. All of my subjects display courage--whether it is the courage to give human caregivers a second chance or to search through the rubble of the decimated World Trade Center. This book is about awareness and hope.” This book is a fund raiser nationally through animal rescue groups, no-kill shelters, and those that hope to become no-kill shelters.
“I received this book and discovered the beautiful illustrations and stories that touched my heart. A must for “dog lovers” that will make a great coffee table book or gift for a friend,” by Alta Tawzer, Tawzer Dog Videos and, now books |

| Cat Book started out simply enough. Emily Weinstein set out to do a series of monoprints of cats she knew personally As she explored her subjects she saw that each cat had a story. So she wrote the stories down, and began hearing of fascinating cats farther afield. The trail led from North Carolina up the East Coast to New York City, where she was able to paint the much-heralded Brooklyn heroine cat, Scarlett, who rescued her five kittens from a ravaging fire. Other cats depicted include Snappy, who has sailed around the world; Wild Boy, feral in the High Sierras; the talking feline Regis, and Max, who has learned to box. It's all great fun -- and wonderful art. |
