The Coming of Saska by Doreen Tovey
A must read for animal enthusiasts For cat lovers old and new - particularly those whose lives are ruled by feline fancy More hilarious antics from Doreen's animal family... Doreen Tovey enchants us with stories of life with her husband Charles in a West Country village, where they are driven to distraction by Siamese cats, Annabel the donkey, nesting swallows, bucking horses, and the villagers who still regard them as inept townsfolk, even after 18 years. In an effort to get away from it all, they take a trip to Canada to see the bears and wolves - much to the alarm of Father Adams and Miss Wellington. If they can't handle Siamese cats, how will they handle a grizzly? As for the cats, Seeley and Shebalu start acting strangely when they develop a taste for dog food. But it is time for another solemn little Seal Point to come into their lives - Saska, who takes some settling in... THE COMING OF SASKA continues Doreen Tovey's memoirs about living with Siamese cats - and other animals: set in the British countryside, it is told with wit, mischief, and above all humour. 'To be sure, Miss Tovey speaks a cat person cult language but she writes amusingly of other country matters - local gossip and characters, a quite frenzied misadventure in bee keeping, and of course Annabel. For those pet owners to whom catering to animal whims is part of the fun' - Kirkus Review 'If you love cats, you'll enjoy every chapter of each book in this witty, warm-hearted collection' - Your Cat Magazine 'No-one writes about cats with more wit, humour and affection than Doreen Tovey. Every word is a delight ' - The People's Friend 'Doreen has a wonderful, warm, and witty way with words that bring the personality of each cat to life and perfectly describe her love of them.' - Life With Siamese Cats 'Every so often, there comes along a book - or if you're lucky books - which gladdens the heart, cheers the soul... Just such books are those written by Doreen Tovey' - Cat World FELINE FROLICS SERIESBook One: Cats in the Belfry
