I really enjoy the Cat Who books!  It all came into perspective in my mind 
when you refered to them as "great mindless reads".  I had just finished a 
500 pager about the Ark of the Covenant.  The Sign and the Seal by Graham 
Hancock.  I have never had any particular interest that would lead me to read 
500 pages about the Ark of the Covenant, I just really enjoy the author and 
the topics he writes about. However....the way he wrote it, he was like a 
detective tracking down the clues. Now that caught my interest!  He would 
write about what he had deduced, where he thought the next clue would take 
him...and after 500 pages I decided I needed a change of pace.  I got one 
book with 3 Cat stories by Lillian Braun and what a joy!
 
Have you read "The Cat Who Saw Red"?  I have a question about that one...if 
Koko and Yum Yum discovered what Joy Graham (Qwilleran's old flame of many 
many years ago) was using to make the wonderful, phosphorescent glaze she 
used on her pottery (before her husband killed her and stole the secret 
ingredient to use on his own pottery) well, what was she herself using and 
where did she get it from?  If he was a rotter for making glaze that way then 
she also must have been a rotter...and how could Qwilleran's true love have 
done such a thing?
 
I guess you would have to have read it to understand my question.
 
I even have a 90 year old cousin in Rhode Island who reads the Cat Whos.
 
Regards....Polly
