This is the third book in the trilogy on Seamus OReilly the cats exploits. He can talk and still has plenty to say, despite growing older and seemingly more mature. But mature is a dirty word in Reillys opinion. As far as hes concerned, hes ageless. To the adorable and yet chauvinistic Reilly, the world is a fascinating place and he is the most fascinating part of it. Reilly manages to ingratiate himself with many of the people around him, provided he leaves his claws retracted. Caught in the middle of the big pussycats capers is Reillys owner, who already knows that there is no one the ornery feline is more protective of than her. In this semi-fictional story, accompanied by illustrations and poetry, Reilly continues with his carefree adventures, entertaining antics, and witty repartee, initially with girlfriend Katie and later on with his new girlfriend, Chloe Arabella, and his owner.

Reilly is a truly remarkable cat in his conversations with his human, namely the author. Consider this small excerpt of dialogue:Reilly lowered one eye at me and added in a rather grandiose manner, even for a cat, that is: - Well, you know the saying, every dog oh, must I puke - supposedly has its day. I am saying that every cat has its day.I was slightly puzzled with his turn of conversation. Thats not quite how the saying goes, I retorted. Its: every dog has its day! - Dog! Dog? Why should it be a dogs prerogative? Im saying that every cat has its day, and whats more, every cat has its dayevery day!Reilly embodies the full meaning of chauvinism, pride and arrogance, and yet is cleverly able to temper all this with his good attributes!
