Sinossi

About Adrian:
Adrian is no ordinary cat – he has ambitions. Not only does he want to become the most famous cat in the world but he’s also determined to create world peace between cats, dogs and mice.

Adrian’s life is full of complications! In an attempt to win the affections of the power crazed, but beautiful, Snowball he is forced to join a gang run by the most evil cat in town - Killer. But Killer also loves Snowball and he’s not going to let Adrian steal her away – not without a fight. On top of all of this Adrian has many adventures; he goes treasure hunting with a pirate parrot, saves the life of a fox and helps his best friend out of all sorts of trouble.

Whether you are nine or ninety-nine you will delight in Adrian’s escapades and mishaps so join him in his thrilling adventures and discover whether he can overcome all his problems to find love, fame and happiness.

“The Secret Diary of Adrian Cat” is a hilarious account of one-year in the life of Adrian Cat - perfect for teenagers and adults. It contains some very funny sophisticated humor.

The secret lives and loves of cats are revealed in this adventure novel, entitled “The Secret Diary of Adrian Cat” that peeks into a year in the life of the mischievous feline Adrian Cat. Adrian is having trouble keeping his new year's resolutions (especially "I will not be condescending to my humans"), and he's also adjusting to the fact that his humans have a new baby, his best friend needs constant help, and he's in love for the first time—with the angelic-seeming Snowball. But Snowball turns out to be less than perfect and tries to lead Adrian into organized crime. She forces him to join the evil cat Killer’s gang. After numerous misadventures he realizes that he does not love the beautiful but power-crazed Snowball and really loves the scruffy yet tender alley cat named Gypsy. After Killer’s gang runs Gypsy out of town, Adrian is forced to make some strange friends, fight the evil Killer and travel a rough road in order to convince Gypsy of his love.

Sunday March 2nd

Today I had an intellectual day - Snowball would be impressed (if we were speaking).

Wrote a poem entitled DesideCata. I am thinking of becoming a cat laureate!

DesideCata
Stroll placidly amid the noise and haste and remember what peace there may be in a long tranquil nap. As far as possible, without being in any way humble, be on good terms with all creatures - with the obvious exception of dogs. Meow your desires loudly and clearly and occasionally listen to others, even your human, for she may be calling you for dinner. Avoid the company of fleas, they are vexations to both spirit and body. Enjoy your achievements - particularly wallpaper lovingly scratched and pieces of string thoroughly chased. Keep interest in your career, there will always be a need for good mousers in the changing fortunes of time. Be yourself; especially do not feign affection - except when you need a warm lap to sleep on. Neither be cynical about the love of cream, for through your charmed and enchanted existence it is as perennial as the grass it comes from.

Take kindly the council of the years and rejoice in the fact that you have nine lives.

Nurture arrogance of spirit to shield you from sudden misfortune such as getting stuck up a tree. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born out of getting less than twenty hours sleep in a day. Beyond a wholesome discipline be gentle with yourself and groom yourself frequently. You are a cat of the universe, so much greater than humans and dogs; you have a right to be served. And even though you may sleep through most of it, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. With all its snacks, adventures and peaceful dreams, it is truly a beautiful world. Be content. Continue to be happy.

365 days in the life of Adrian, cat. Literally. This is Adrian's diary, starting on January 1st. On which he resolves, among other things, to not be condescending toward his humans, to be more decisive about going in or out, and to promote world peace between cats, dogs, and mice. Adrian has great plans for the next year.

As is the case with most resolutions, Adrian's are sometimes abandoned. By January 2nd he has already decided that his humans, Skirt and Trouser, don't deserve the amount of respect he was considering giving them, and since the 6th is "Condescension Monday"... Some resolutions are reworked. When the neighbor humans get a dog, it becomes obvious that cats and dogs won't be getting along anytime soon, so Adrian limits his peacemaking efforts to cats and mice. It would be so much easier, though, if mice weren't so tasty!

There's much more to the life of Adrian Cat. Over the course of a year he falls in love, falls out of love, falls in love again, challenges the neighborhood bully cat, leads a rebellion, makes new friends, celebrates various cat holidays, and so much more. Adrian is a highly evolved and intelligent cat, if he does say so himself. And if you don't believe him, just read for yourself!

If you're a cat person, this is the book for you! And if you're not, you'll have a lot of hilarious fuel for your arguments. And just in case you were wondering -- yes, cats do know which humans don't like them. And they go for you on purpose.

5.0 su 5 stelle Loved the book so much I read it to my cat. 27 settembre 2007
Di Sam Wilson - Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Rilegato
If you like cats you can't fail to love this endearing tale (pun intended). Adrian's adventures are hilarious - every day of his diary a joy to read. Here is his thoughts on how to enjoy life:

Ways To Ensure Nine Joyful Lives.

Be dignified - let dogs perform the tricks.

Sleep incessantly. It is the sole purpose of life.

Be prudent - never chase anything more than half your size.

Scratch wallpaper. It is one of the noblest pursuits.

Nurture patience - postpone all ambitions until your next life.

Chase string. It brings inner peace.

Be proud - you are a member of the family which includes lions, tigers and cheetahs.

Climb curtains. It takes you to a higher spiritual level.

Be inquisitive - discover a thousand places to sleep.

5.0 su 5 stelle Adrian Mole, move over...share the stage with Adrian Cat! 30 aprile 2012
Di saraf - Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Formato Kindle|Acquisto verificato Amazon
This absolutely charming book is a parody on the Adrian Mole diaries by Sue Townsend, a series of books I have read several times and find delightful. The Secret Diary of Adrian Cat will join my "reread this over and over pile". It was funny, poignant, and soooooo spot on for the life of a cat. It starts with Adrian the Cat's New Year's Resolutions (just as the Secret Diaries of Adrian Mole, Aged 13 and 3/4 does) and catches your attention from the very first page. When I read the diary entry that he had slept a meager 21 hours today and thought he must be getting insomnia I was hooked! I have a cat with that exact kind of insomnia! I love the running gag that Trousers keeps sitting in the cat's new chair. It is a perfect way to show that if a cat can see it, it's his. Loved the introduction of the "human kitten" and the cat's lament at how long it took it to learn the most basic of functions like crawling!

However, you do not have to have read (or even heard of) the Adrian Mole diaries to enjoy this book. Without having read the Adrian Mole diaries, this book stands alone as a real tribute to our beloved cats and what they get up to all day when you're gone (wallpaper scratching and sleeping mostly). After reading the Mole diaries as well it is a double whammy of FUN!

While it seems to be rated as a children's book, it is suitable for anyone of any age. Go on. Read it. You know you want to!
