The Lockridges were devoted cat people, and their love of felines shows up throughout their mystery fiction. Cats and People (1950) is their one non-fiction book, and it is exactly what the title promises: a warm, funny look at life with cats.
Richard and Frances drew on years of living with their own cats to write about feline behavior, personality, and the particular way cats manage to run a household while pretending they couldn’t care less. Fans of the Mr. and Mrs. North series will recognize some of the same humor and affection that runs through those mysteries. If you like cats and enjoy the Lockridge voice, this book is a treat.
