Homer is one pawsome dude! I sure would like to read all about his adventures…
Oh, I would really love to read Homer’s story!
Sounds like a wonderful book. My mommy would love to have books like this.
Momma has a tote bag that says, “Books. Cats. Life is good.” I think she’d love to read Homer’s story.
This sounds like such a wonderful story. I would love to read it!
Ever Since I found out about this book, I wanted to get it. I would love to win it, but it’s on my wish list in case I don’t. I have a blind cat so it is near and dear to my heart. Goldie Goodwin
My catMom would love to read this to me! Homer is my hero
Homer is an inspiration to every cat and purrson out there. Never let anything get in your way of living AND loving your life! We would love to learn more about this wonderful guy!
oh I would love to read this book! Homer is one of those heart pets- you may have only one or two or none in your lifetime that are more than your average pet , more than normal, special and enrich your life so much you have to wonder what you’d do without them. This sounds like a wonderful story.
I would love to add this to my library! What a great book!
Actually, Mommie has this books already. Her absolutely loves it!! If her wins, her will pass on the book to somes other lucky Catster. Homer is a furtastic kittie!
I would love to read about Homer!
We would love Mum to read this book to us. Sparky, who is at the Bridge with me, was blind, but you would never know it to watch her play.
My Person would like this book, so I guess I will come out of innernets retirement BREEFLY to try to get it for her.
Mom would love this book, it would be shared with the many cat lovers in our family.
I would like Mommy to have this book because I am tired of her reading “The Cat Who” books to me.
Love,
Elise
xoxo
Ohh, this is a nice prize!
Sounds like a must-have book.
A great fine to add to any cat lovers library.
Good Luck and Happy Holidays to all!
We would really like this book, momma cuddles us when she reads

My mom would love to get this book from my feisty little paws!
Hi, i just found out that my furbaby has cataracs and is blind i one eye. happened very quickly, and i would really love to win this book, as i can not afford to spend any money on myself since i have to pay for 3 very expensive meds for him.
thank you!
Homer, you’re Awesome!
Meowmy will never forget 09/11 – she was at work when it happened and Daddy called her. Many friends and co-workers were in NYC and it took many hours to find them all. She also cried when she heard about the animals being left all alone. It was such a sad sad time for humans.
This sounds like a perfect book for anyone to read and it would be pawsome to win it.
Would love to have this book. I never had a blind kitty but we did have a deaf kitty once.
Homer’s story is an inspiration for us all. If I win this book, I will pass it on to the after school program that my workplace sponsors.
Cool! This in on my Christmas list for sure. Homer’s story is so wonderful.
What a great book for any cat to add to their collection!
Aww, dat kittah looks like Aldo!
I would love to read about Homer’s adventure’s. Mommy had a kitty once that was blind in one eye and not much better in the other. Nothing kept the little guy down.
If I don’t win … a good gift to ask Santa to bring me!
Such a sweet sounding story!
Sounds like a wonderful book!

Oh please, oh please, oh please! We so love to help out blind kitties!
A friend of mine just adopted a blind cat (he has no eyes at all) named Wonder. She is my hero.
Kitties with disabilities never cease to amaze my meowmy… how they get over obstacles humans find insurmountable. Way to go, Homer!
Looks like a good read, something I’ll have to save for if I don’t win. I always enjoy stories involving animals, especially cats.
I have a couple of babies with “disabilities” – but you’d never convince them of it! LOL
This looks like a good book!
What’s a “kitteh”?
I would love to snuggle up with a good book.
Luci
Oh yeah, we wanted mom to get dis book and read it to us!
We are not handicapped, but our sister dog has one eye missing.
What a great kitty. That sounds like a good book for my mommie. My big sister Bathsheba was going blind just before she died, but she still knew when I was near.

What a great tale of the tail, I would love to read Homer’s whole story.
would love to win this one, i havent read it
I fell in love with this story yesterday after reading your interview. I can’t wait to pick up a copy of the book (if I don’t win it, of course).
What a wonderful kitty Homer is.
I am a very firm believer that ALL animals deserve a chance, no matter what problems they have.
I am sure this is an inspirational story. It is so near and dear to our hearts. I lost my eyesight suddenly several weeks before going to the bridge….I went into the darkness and it was scarey…..So many supported me, especially the Blind Cat Rescue, with information and love….now, I can see the sun shine at the bridge. I would love to share this book with my family.
Doubt we’ll have much chance on this one, but we’d love a copy. Tried for a drawing before but didn’t get it. Zilla’s MIL did… mol!!!
Oh, I would LOVE for Mommy to win this book. She read the interview, and then the first chapter online, and REALLY wants to continue reading it!! Thanks so much for the chance!
Hey! Sounds great, count me in!
Oooh, yes please!!!
Love this
I have 2 cats ,One we rescued form a dirty home he was only 3 weeks, but was also starving because he was the runt and couldent get enough milk for his mom, He is now 5 and half yrs old , Loves to ride in our truck,loves power tools or the sound of them and has a blanky he sucks and carries around with him, as well when i take our dog for a walk he comes too, so funny!! We also adopted a kitten this year ,she wandered in our garage and fell asleep she was only 3 months old, she is so sweet and we think her sight is limited, but is a good cat and a keeper!!

I have 2 cats. Both are rescue kitties. I adopted Smokey because his former owner couldn’t keep him any longer and was taking him to the animal shelter. Charlie, I adopted from the animal shelter. They are the loves of my life, and are terribly SPOILED. We snuggle up at nite and I sing or read to them before we go to sleep.
Homer’s story sounds like one definitely worth the read!

I’d love to have this book. I love stories like this.
This book would fit in well with our collection of cat mystery novels
I donate every day to a blind cat rescue-to see them makes me so sad-if I lose one of my “boys” I would have to take one of these darlings.
I like this too!
So many nice things….I feel bad wanting them all! But I like nice things!
This looks like an amazing book,my son and I love reading books about cats.
Our Mom has a vast collection of all sorts of cat books,but she doesn’t have THIS one. We think it will make the PURRFECT Christmas gift for her for all the wonderful things she does for us throughout the year. Thank you! Chloe & Toto
Leeloo, an adventurous Bengal who is not allowed to go outside because of her killer instinct, would love to read of the adventures of another cat who has had the opportunity to explore the outside world much more than she has. Leeloo cannot help herself as her natural instincts fall into play whenever she gets the opportunity to get out and explore the world outside her house and screened patio. This book would be the purrfect bedtime reading for her and her other cat companions.
This book is on my list of ones that I want to read, as well as on my Christmas list
My brother, Fergus, and I would like this!
A book to read with the kitty’s by the fire on a cold winter’s night… pppuuurrrrr…
