Book Description

16 Sep 2010

'The wonderful thing about having a relationship with a cat is that it can bring you to something truly extraordinary and life-changing'

There comes a time in every cat's life when his schedule slows down, and he struggles with aches and pains. Peter has been inseparable from his Scottish Fold cat Norton for fourteen years, and now he has to learn how to deal with death and grief.

But Norton has taught Peter much more than this. How to live life on your own terms, and how to appreciate and savour the joyful times that come along while we're here on earth.

Forever Norton is a deeply moving and life-affirming tribute to a humble little animal, who understood the meaning of true friendship.

Product Description

Review

Peter Gethers' trio of books about the globe-trotting Norton are witty and warm. We not only learn of Norton's sweet personality but also about the author's feelings about what really matters when it comes to love and cats (Vicki Myron, Author Of Dewey )

Gethers captures the joy and sadness of loving and losing a pet. Bottom line: Tuesdays with Norton (People )

Nine lives wasn't enough for Norton. He needed ten! I'll miss my literary friend (Rita Mae Brown )

Laugh-out-loud and tear-jerking recollections: Gethers makes Norton an immortal, delivering an affecting narrative that belongs on the bookshelf of all cat fanciers (Kirkus Reviews )

The third and final international bestseller about Norton, the extraordinary folded-eared Scottish Fold cat and his human Peter

4.0 out of 5 stars Deeply Moving 12 July 2012
By Roo
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I found this book so sad. I realised when I was only a couple of chapters in that, because I knew that Norton would pass to cat heaven in his book, it coloured the rest of it for me and though there were plenty of good stories I was waiting for the inevitable. When Norton finally became ill the book went from sad to heart-rending as Peter struggled to cope then, through sheer love of this tiny animal, overcame his neuroses to provide the best care possible for his little pal. I think I went through most of a box of tissues and, on finishing the book, have placed it on the pile of books for the charity store as I just don't think I can read it again - my tear ducts can't cope! It's both heart-warming and heart-rending at the same time and, although very sad, it's a reminder of how the love of any creature whether cat or human can transform a life.

If you are a cat lover this is a lovely book to read. Norton sounds a true delight and has got Peter Gethers wrapped round his little paws. Loved it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Forever Norton 7 Oct 2010
Format:Paperback
I am really enjoying this book as much as the others by Peter Gethers. It's a good light hearted read, although I do think this one may end on a sad note when Norton dies.

I haven't got round to reading this book just yet but if the first two are anything to go by, it will be a great read. As cat lovers know too well, all feline's have their own characters and Norton definately has his and it comes across in all the Norton books.
