The Good, the Bad And the Furry: Life With the World's Most Melancholy Cat And Other Whiskery Friends
“‘Some people,’ Beverley tuts, thinking that the toad has probably been abandoned by cruel owners who neglected to get their original family toad neutered. Despite having little previous experience with amphibians, she names the toad Dickie, and he soon becomes a well-known and well-loved character around the library, sitting on the shoulders of children as they read, splashing about in the sinks in the gents’ toilets and building a toad nest for himself in the back of the photocopier, using old..., scrunched-up, unwanted copies of church newsletters. Dickie’s happy-go-lucky approach to life persuades Beverley to delay her retirement and reach an inner peace about her estrangement from her father, who ran off with the owner of a fish and chip van when she was seven.
Bartholomew and Me (and the Awkward Space Between Us) One snowy night, Bartholomew, a cuddly marmalade cat with ‘whiskers that won’t quit’, rolls up, as if out of nowhere, at the door of Kenneth, a lifelong bachelor who has never quite learned to love and has instead retreated to a tumbledown cottage on the North Devon coast and a solitary life of boatbuilding.MoreLess
