My Friend – the Cat
Traces the ten year relationship between a man and one very adventurous feline, Chesterson. From chasing cockroaches in their first apartment, “a crappy East Village monstrosity with sloping floors,” where, during hot summers, kitty was placed in the refrigerator to cool off, to wintertime road trips where we learn that cats can indeed drive a station wagon, straight through to the furry one’s cold-blooded attacks upon sleeping bare feet, the story of this special union unfolds year by year.
“Poignant and laugh out loud funny … clever wit and a flare for silliness and human kindness.”
-JOHN HOGLUND, THEATRESCENE.NET
“The funny, entertaining and very touching story of a boy who becomes a man while spending less than a dozen years with a very wise (and clever) feline partner.”
-STU HAMSTRA, CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE
“Anyone who has ever loved a pet or cherished a friend will recognize something in the relationship between Bond and Chesterson … Bond’s anecdotes about his ten years with Chesterson are sweet, funny and endearing.”
