You're a cat person or you're not. Democrats/Republicans, pro-choicers/pro-lifers, there's some give and take. Not with cats.

Best known for her syndicated cartoon Sylvia and best-seller 101 Reasons a Cat Is Better Than a Man, Hollander is now tackling the female-aging process with her razor wit and her new book Tales of Graceful Aging From the Planet Denial.
