Shakespeare for Cats is made up of a bunch of short stories, featuring the furry, hoofed, feathered and even two legged denizens of an aging neighborhood.The characters are each unique and well-developed, and though they may not try to be, they are humorous in their interactions and their life views. My favorite, and a great example, is Fav the opossum. He organizes a gang of house mice on raids, ambushes and intelligence missions, and even makes an attempt to bribe a guard parrot into looking the other way for a cut of the take.
The reference to Shakespeare in the title is reflected in the story with various quotes from and scenes reminiscent (although loosely) of various Shakespearean works. It's not a rehash of those works, however, just a lighthearted and amusing nod to them. A pair of elderly twins in the neighborhood who grew up in a family that appreciated Shakespeare provide the most quotes, though the tragic and dramatic exploits of Fav's mice minions provide their fair share of tongue in cheek references as well.
As for the organization of the book, some of the stories seem a bit disjointed and many end abruptly. However, each story features one of the characters from the last, which seems to be the thing connecting them all together. Took me a while to figure it out, but once I did, it made sense.
Overall, Shakespeare for Cats is a cute, humorous, and light read featuring a few amusing references to Shakespeare. I think those who would most enjoy this book are people who like to read quick and amusing short stories before bedtime. Those who enjoy stories featuring clever animal characters would probably also like this book.

Classics for Cats edition by De James Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Short read, cute. If you are not familiar with the works of Shakespeare you will miss the similes. An enjoyable read if you like cat stories, as I do.
Not what I expected. A series of feline vignettes with oft, "somewhat" quotations from various Shakespeare plays. I love Shakespearean literature. The character cats in this book felt under developed and unfinished.
At times the story is a bit disjointed, but I suspect that the author is aware of that and may have intended it to be that way. I particularly loved the animals in the book. The humans were quirky and interesting, but the cats and other animals were what kept me turning (virtual) pages! I am still not quite sure about the title, since I didn't detect an overwhelming number of references or parallels to Shakespeare, but then I am not much of an expert on Shakespeare. All in all, I really enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who loves cats and the crazy friends in their lives.
