This is quite possibly the cutest novel that I've ever read. Oh, how I love anthropomorphic animals! The story was pretty interesting, though I didn't like what happened at the very end. (I won't completely ruin the ending, but let's just say that I wasn't fond of Hermux playing god.) I was also annoyed by Hermux's tendencies toward speciesism (racism?) and especially by something that Dr. Mennus said to Hermux at the health spa:
"Our starting point is what our subject is, but our finishing point is what our subject would like to be. And the answers are obvious. Tall rather than short. Thin rather than fat. But not too thin, of course, as the subject is not female."
OBVIOUSLY it's better to be tall and thin than short and fat, and it's completely acceptable for females to be too thin? Grr. But despite my irritation over these specific issues, I really did enjoy the book overall.
