There's something about cats at Christmas that really speaks to me, whether they're participating in the Nativity, as in Robert Westall's The Witness or Michael Foreman's Cat in the Manger; being driven to distraction by all the fuss, as in Judith Kerr's Mog's Christmas or Matthew Sturgis' Tosca's Christmas; or finding a home, as here in Christmas for a Kitten, or in Efner Tudor Holmes' The Christmas Cat. Perhaps my love of cats, and desire for their well-being, when taken together with my beliefs about the meaning of Christmas, and the importance of kindness and generosity during this season, produce an irresistible combination? In any case, although there was never much doubt in my mind that the kitten here would find a home, I was surprised to discover with whom he would be living! Yay for Santa having a cat! - a theme also explored in Sue Stainton's Santa's Snow Cat and Santa's Snow Kitten. The beautiful artwork, done in oil, captures the dark feeling in the beginning of the story, as the kitten must find his way through the wintry world, as well as the joy-filled feeling at the end, as the kitten is borne off by Santa.
All in all, this was a heartwarming Christmas tale, one I would recommend especially to young animal and cat lovers at the holidays! ( )
