Whatever Happens to Kittens?

Bill Hall, friend and butler to cats, admits to mixed feelings about such strange little creatures. He compares serving a cat to having a human 2-year-old in your life-something lovable that commands your affection but trashes your house. A cat, like a child, will mangle your begonias and then crawl into your lap to share the warmth of its feelings - but only if it really wants to. Hall, a syndicated humor columnist, admits his popular cat stories are really about humans and the rational reasons we bring cats into our lives - for entertainment and for fuzzy filler in empty nests. Hanging out with cats also gives hope for humankind. After all, if we can bond so tightly with creatures from another species, then we could easily learn to harmonize with fellow human beings.

In the Service of Her Majesty the Pussycat

Cat Butler

The word "Firefighter" evokes many images in the minds of people everywhere. They are perceived as low-life's who sit around the fire house playing cards and pool, and shooting the breeze to saving kittens from being stuck in a tree and collecting undeserved paychecks. They are also hailed as heroes who are willing to give it all, including their own lives, to save a life. As a Baltimore City Firefighter for thirty years, now retired, Hall will take readers on a journey from the front seat of a fire engine to the side streets of Baltimore city. Readers will be transported on calls for people trapped in motor vehicles to assisting paramedics rescue a man pinned by a train. They will witness the rage and violence in the streets of Baltimore and the professionals who attend to those victims every day.
