I had a really hard time getting into this story. Maybe that is because I'm not much of a cat person but it also seemed to move very slowly until at least half way. I eventually got into the story and interested enough to see it through. The mystery of who was easy and obvious early on but the mystery of why was what kept me going. In the end I was glad I stuck with it. I actually ended up looking into needle felting and might end up giving that a try.
