Comments on: Lilian Jackson Braun: The Cat Who... series http://girlebooks.com/blog/book-reviews/lilian-jackson-braun-the-cat-who-series/ Tue, 15 May 2012 16:57:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Karen http://girlebooks.com/blog/book-reviews/lilian-jackson-braun-the-cat-who-series/comment-page-13/#comment-10918 Karen Tue, 15 May 2012 16:57:14 +0000 http://girlebooks.com/blog/?p=57#comment-10918 Yes, I agree Joyce, Post Office is an important little book in the series. Isn't this the book where Iris Cobb goes to the city council meeting with Qwill. That chapter is one of the funniest and most interesting chapters in all the books in all. It is so very well written and introduces so much about the little town of Pickax. I still remember after all these years, reading Post Office for the first time. I read them in mixed up order and was hungry for the book that tied "Brahams" where he gets the inheritence and the other books where he was well establised in Pickax. I still remember my delight standing in a used bookstore many years ago, called "The Book Rack" and finding it! I read it so fast then read it again. I love reading your insights into LJB's writing as you read through some of these older books. Yes, I agree Joyce, Post Office is an important little book in the series.

It seemed he used it as an affectation when he was having a conversation with a person of interest. He could stop and mess with his pipe to allow the other person time to gather their thoughts, without creating any uncomfortable silence. I also wonder about Melinda. The first time Qwill sees her, he thinks that she is plain looking. In the next couple of books, she gets prettier, especially her sparkling green eyes. Or perhaps beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I have been reading "Played Post Office" and realizing how pivotal it is to the series. I have been wanting to more on to "Knew Shakespeare" but for some reason, Amazon doesn't offer that one in the Kindle Edition. I admit, I'm spoiled with reading my backlit Kindle fire at night.

Rather than get sad, I am doing what many others of you do, reread the old books. I was reading The Cat Who Smelled a Rat and near the beginning of the book Qwill states that every winter the first snowfall of the season is "The Big One". Is this an editorial mistake much like the mistake of saying Melinda Goodwinter got Qwill to give up smoking when we all know Rosemary did that in one of the earlier books. Surely not every first snow is a blizzard in Moose County. I thought the "Big One" could happen all during the winter months. Iknow in "Shakespere" the Big One was the first snow of the year. how many books set in winter had "the Big One". I remember one in "Closet". How many winter books are there? On and Off was winter in the city. I will have to research this. Oh the joy of the little cat books! Hey everyone,

My sister's friend introduced us to "Secret of the Old Clock" probably about 50 years ago, and we methodically read our way through every book that was available in the set. We used to save our allowances and go to Dibble's toy store to buy the next installment. Nancy Drew was actually created by Edward Stratemeyer, dime novelist and the creator of the Bobbsey Twins and the Hardy Boys. While he created the character, it was Mildred Wirt Benson that wrote the first books. His daughter, Harriett Stratemeyer Adams, took over the company when he died and they continued to produce Nancy Drew Books. It was Ms. Adams who died, leaving Ms. Benson in a bit of a quandary. You can read the whole story in Melanie Rehak's "Nancy Drew and the Women Who Created Her." Since starting to reread the "Cat Who" series, I have an appreciation of LJB's wonderful, wry sense of humor and irony. Perhaps they were there in the late books, and perhaps it has been too long since I read them, but this wryness seems new to me. I could very easily see her covering such things as reality TV and Occupy Wall Street. If you want a dose of Reality TV in a novel much less humourous but nonetheless absorbing, I recommend Suzanne Collins' "The Hunger Games" and its sequels. Nancy Drew certainly brings back memories.

It seems someone went to alot of work to put that little film together. It seemed to me it was a young person, maybe? I really wish we could have more books. I would love for LJB's estate to hire a ghost writer to continue the series. Wasn't that done for the Nancy Drew series? I wonder what LJB would write about concerning: Occupy Wallstreet or all the reality tv shows, or other current trends in our society. lololol @ the thought of Occupy Pickax....I think the pioneers of Pickax already did that when they protested and picketed outside of the Post Office when the murals were crumbling and falling apart. What book was that? I will have to research. Also, protests and pickets in front of the library the time the card catalog went computerized!! Remember that? lololol LJB was ahead of her time!

This is a video book trailer for "The Cat Who Dropped a Bombshell." It's kind of cute, but I never imagined that Qwill was the type put a rhinestone collar on Koko. Maybe I missed something.

I think I mentioned that Laura and I discussed making the LJB part of this site more independent, and there may be a new location, although you don't need to worry because there will be plenty of links to guide you to the new site. I will probably be more involved in the maintenance of the site, taking over that task from Laura, who is really taxed to keep up with all her clients now! I look forward to the change, because I do this purely for enjoyment, especially keeping contact with my cat-loving friends. My review will be published on this site, as far as I know.

It knocks out fleas immediately, and makes it safe for the cat to come into the office without infesting all the other animals. Capstar is just a "drops on the back" product. My vet usually uses that product alone, although when I brought Friday in after finding him on the street and crawling with fleas, he did use the flea bath. For maintenance, I use a product called "Revolution" which prevents ear mites, fleas, ticks, heartworms and tape worms. Since it prevents heart worms, it will make your cat live a lot longer. I had a sweet Siamese cat, Katie, who came to me from a friend. I had the friend test her for Leukemia and AIDS, but failed to ask her to get Katie tested for heart worms. One day at feeding time, she just keeled over and died. The vet said she had heartworms. After that, I became a firm believer in heartworm medication, regardless of the cost.

He said most vets will no longer flea dip or bath cats. It is now frowned upon as "not best practices" for cats. He treated her with drops on the back and said to bring her back in a month. She seems much less "full of fleas" since this treatment. I will watch her closely. FYI, the new vet said that the flea bath was probably what made her so sick last year.

I once read somewhere that cats don't like change. They don't like the furniture being moved around; they don't like new items introduced into their environment; they especially don't like new foods or new litter. I have raised 14 cats now and I insist this is patently untrue. My cats, who range in age from 18 months to 16 years, LOVE change. New food, new cat litter, bring it on. New furniture, new arrangements--what fun to explore. And if a new box shows up they will do everything in their power to get inside. I leave their carriers all over the house, and they don't have much to do with them, unless one carrier is moved to a new location. Then one cat will show up inside it, and the others will be waiting in line for their turn. Sounds like you did a good job of making the carrier up the way she likes it.

I agree. One of the beauties of reading early "Cat Who..." is the contrast between abodes, the strange assignments that Qwill receives, and generally austere lifestyle he has to live on his less than adequate salary. I'll be reporting on "The Cat Who Played Brahms", which may be the most important novel in the series, this being the one where he inherits Aunt Fanny's fortune and decides to move to Pickax. It, like its predecessor, was nominated for an Anthony Award for Best Original Paperback. The detail, the humor, and the rich style LJB incorporates in this novel make it one of the best in the series. Hi, Praline. I agree.

Long time no see! Life gets busy and I do so much work on my laptop, I rarely use it for fun these days. Good to see most of us are well and enjoying our kitties. Funny story about my teenager's cat. The cat loves the kids so much but will have anything to do with me. She barely tolerates me even though I am the one who feeds her and waters her. She needed a maintenance trip to the vet so I cleaned up the cat carrier to her expectations, put in a new towel for softness as she likes, and left it on the kitchen island overnight The next morning I dreaded trying to get her in the carrier without a fuss (a la yumyum style). Much to my surprise when I walked into the kitchen she was IN THE CARRIER all by herself. Go figure cats! Anne I hope you are doing well with your illness, take care, Karen. Hey LJB readers!

I rarely reread or relisten to this book. I have never given it much credence. But upon this listen I found sarcasm, humor and small tidbits I have never noticed before. I am having alot of fun listening to it. The irony that Qwill went from living in the Villa Veranda, an ultra swanky apartment building to the next book, "On and Off" where he lived with a hodgepodge of old antiques in a boarding house is priceless. The humor of each edition of "Graceful Abodes" his new decorating supplement for the Fluxion being sabatoged is so funny. The suspense builds, what could go wrong with it next!!!

The writing is superb, both in language and story line. It took me two days to read this novel, because I just couldn't put it down. It's nice to go back and read Qwill's early history because it shows us clearly the type of person he is. When you get to "Saw Red" you see that he would give the shirt off his back, or anyway, 3/4 of his bank account, to help a friend in need. And the rest goes to the cats' gourmet diet. Praline, I think changing vets is a good idea, if you are not comfortable discussing your issues with your vet. I changed vets twice before I found one I felt I could trust. My husband calls him Doctor Rich, but I am willing to pay more to keep my darlings healthy. I had forgotten how entertaining "Turned on and Off" was.
