Disillusioned young pastor, Jake Wilkerson, has just arrived at his new assignment in the small rural church of Coudersport, Pennsylvania. Also new on the scene is Petey, a cat of unknown origins and breed—but of great perception.
As Jake sets about doing the business of ministry, Petey’s continued interference brings chaos to the community of curiously off and eccentric people—residents like the faith-avoiding veterinarian Sally Grainger and Tassy, a young runaway with a secret. An expert at hiding his fears, Jake wonders if all this—and the cat to boot—is more than he can handle. What is Petey’s real “mission”? Perhaps something larger than Jake—or even Petey—can possibly know.
Be sure to check out Jim’s The Dog That Talked to God which was nominated as an ECPA book of the Year (2013).
Recently widowed Mary Fassler buys a Miniature Schnauzer, Rufus, and her world is turned sideways in the midst of her grief. It seems that Rufus speaks. And not just to her. He also talks to God. When Rufus begins sharing advice that could result in major changes, Mary gets the feeling the pooch might not be steering her in the right direction. Or, is she just afraid to take the leap and discover something she desperately needs? Only Rufus…and God…knows.
My Thoughts:
If you are one to judge a book by the cover, then you are already predicting cute novels, right? Well, you are correct! Due to allergies, I am not a pet-owner/lover; however, I must admit the animals and the stories are quite cute. If you are looking for a light-hearted, joy-filled read, then you should try one of these. They are filled with fun and detailed characters, and each has a nice little message attached.
