I kind of love "The Life and Opinions of Tomcat Murr".
"Kind of", because I do not like to read the whole book -- the human parts are less fun, and the cat dies at the end -- but the voice of Murr, the ironic bathos when he switches from art to fish in half a sentence, and the way he is so very much Cat: completly convinced of his worth, skill, and rightness, filled with the kind of entitlement so enjoyable in cats and so annoying in humans.
