Why Must I Chase da Cat?

About the Book

In Los Angeles in the 90s, Davey Stein and his two best friends, Dab and Doc, are three black bachelors whose goal is to meet ladies. Davey has a high sexual appetite and opinion of himself—even if he is shallow and desperate for tail. No matter how horny, though, he cares about how his woman looks, particular about who meets “Junior.” Together, the three friends get caught up in various escapades as they have fun before each of them meets “the one.” Davey is actually looking to settle down sooner rather than later. In Why Must I Chase Da Cat, each story revolves around the pursuit of a particular sexual partner (or partners). Observe the interworking of the minds of three men whose main thought is how to get over, under, or with the next cutie on duty. “You just gots to chase da cat … it’s nuttin’ but the dawg in you.” That’s true for Davey, but not for much longer, as he knows “the one” is out there somewhere.
