(4) 4-6 The animals at an East Hampton shelter await Christmas with anticipation. An ill-tempered Siamese finds a home with a young actress; a retired racing greyhound is taken in by a nontraditional family; a lost dog is reunited with his owners. Kerr's talking-animal fantasy is so crowded with incidents and characters that the plot becomes chaotic, but the novel still features the author's characteristic edginess and wisecracking dialogue.
