best cat novels

Definitely 'The Cat's Table' by Michael Ondaatje. This novel is beautifully written. It tells the story of a boy's journey on a ship, and there are cats on the ship which play an important role in the boy's experiences. It's a story about growing up, discovery, and of course, cats. There's also 'The Cats of Tanglewood Forest' by Charles de Lint. It's a magical story where cats are part of a magical world, perfect for those who like fantasy.

One of the best cat novels is 'The Cat Who...' series by Lilian Jackson Braun. It follows the adventures of a journalist and his Siamese cat. Another great one is 'Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats' by T.S. Eliot, which inspired the musical 'Cats'.

One great cat mystery novel is 'The Cat Who Could Read Backwards' by Lilian Jackson Braun. It features a smart cat named Koko who helps solve mysteries. Another is 'Cat of Many Tails' by Ellery Queen, where a series of murders are investigated with a cat somehow involved in the mystery. And 'The Ninth Life' by Clea Simon is also a good one, with a cat at the center of the story's mystery.

One of the great cat girl visual novels is 'Nekopara'. It features cute cat girls in a charming and often light - hearted story. The art style is really appealing, and it has gained a large following.

Some great cat and mouse novels include 'The Silence of the Lambs' by Thomas Harris. Here, Clarice Starling is on the hunt for the brilliant and terrifying Hannibal Lecter. It's a psychological thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Also, 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' by Stieg Larsson has a cat - and - mouse - like plot as the journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the hacker Lisbeth Salander dig deeper into a dark mystery. And 'Gone Girl' by Gillian Flynn, with its twists and turns as the two main characters play a dangerous game of cat and mouse.

Well, 'Saga' has been very successful in terms of sales. Its unique blend of science - fiction and fantasy, along with the cat - like characters, has attracted a large audience.

'The Adventures of Tintin' also has a memorable cat character Snowy. While not a cat - centric graphic novel, Snowy's presence adds a lot to the story. The classic art style and the thrilling adventures Tintin gets into, with Snowy by his side, make it a must - read. It has been popular for decades and continues to be loved by many.

I would recommend 'Kiss an Angel' by Susan Elizabeth Phillips. The relationship between the main characters has that cat - and - mouse element as they both have their own agendas and personalities that clash and attract at the same time. 'The Duke and I' by Julia Quinn also has a bit of this. Daphne and Simon have a relationship that starts off with some games and a bit of chasing each other. 'Attachments' by Rainbow Rowell is another one. The way the relationship between Lincoln and the two women he is monitoring in their emails has a cat - and - mouse feel as he gets to know them without their knowledge at first.

Sure. 'The Cat Who Saw Red' is a great choice. It has a cat that seems to be aware of things that humans miss, which helps in the mystery - solving. Another is 'The Cat Who Played Brahms'. The cat in this novel is quite intelligent and helps the main character figure out the mystery. And 'The Cat Who Knew Shakespeare' is also wonderful, as the cat's behavior and actions are related to the mystery.

The Cat Writers Association has many great works among its winners. However, without more in - depth research, it's difficult to name particular best novels. Some might focus on the relationship between cats and humans, while others could be about the unique behaviors of cats. It would be great to explore their archives or ask someone who is really into cat - related literature.
