About this title: Picking up where "The Cat Who Came for Christmas" left off, Polar Bear is back with another volume of adventures and domestic skirmishes with his owner and biographer, Cleveland Amory. The cat is now a celebrity, but refuses to act like one, except to show an interest in his fan mail.

"Stories and incidents between Polar Bear, the cat, and the man he "owned". Not as good as I had hoped. The author is a bit too chauvinistic and selfish for my liking."
"This three book series by Cleveland Amory is some of my favorite reading - I re-read these books every few years. Of course the stories are about a cat that came into the author's life and life was never the same."
"Cleveland Amory writes some the damndest convoluted sentences. There. Now that I have that off my chest I can also say that some of those damn sentences are clever and dare I say it-heart warming. I am in danger of turning into a pillar of salt here, but this is a sweet book. The cat named Polar Bear is now famous because of the first book about him "The Cat Who Came for Christmas" and now this celebrity must be dealt with in all its social ugliness. The bulk of the book deals with Polar Bears cameo in a movie and the vexations he causes Amory. It's lighthearted and a Valentine to cat lovers (of which I am one, but still feel like I should be sniffing sulfur or burping Brimstone). Don't be afraid-sometimes a massive dose of sugar ain't such a bad thing.
"As anyone who has ever been around a cat for any length of time well knows, cats have enormous patience with the limitations of the human kind.""
