Cats in the Belfry (Doreen Tovey)

Cats In The Belfry - Doreen Tovey Hilarious and wonderful. A real comfort read for me, this tale of Siamese cats and their human slaves in England never fails to transport me. Re-read 2/2010I still love this book, as anthropomorphic and silly as it is. It's the more-or-less true story of how a nearly textbook dotty English couple who live in a picturesque English cottage in a picturesque English village lose control of their lives to some Siamese cats with personalities as large as the oceans. There are numerous falls down stairs and roofs, tumbles into water butts and bathtubs, and of course there are curtains torn down and food rejected as inferior. If you are a cat lover, I recommend this book to you.
