<blockquote><p>'When a book can make me laugh and cry, it has done its job.'</p></blockquote>

<p>When Chari Fish opens her home to a cat with the &nbsp;disposition of Rodney Dangerfield and the addictive properties of chocolate, all hell breaks loose.</p>
<p>Climbing trees and chasing squirrels across rooftops are just a precursor to mightier transgressions like springing onto the steering wheel of Chari&rsquo;s moving car after a misguided adventure through a car wash. Then there are the neighborhood bouts of kleptomania, followed by the dognapping of a Black Lab.</p>
<p><em><strong>HE HAD ME AT MEOW</strong></em> is the humorous tale of a rambunctious cat who strained the patience of his human mom while teaching her the meaning of a life well-lived, and never failing to demonstrate the depth of his love. If there were ever a cat that infused all nine lives with fervor, Cooper was his name.</p>
