Brilliant and moving portrait of the gentle author living his life together with his cat Mr Pussy. There are many scenes every cat owner will immediately know. You feel the deep affection of the author towards his cat. The most moving parts are when the mouser is getting older. Small, silent and deeply philosophical book every cat owner will love to read! I absolutely enjoyed the well written book and do hope that the Spitalfields author found a new feline friend. Absolutely recommended!

This was a delightful tribute to a very special feline companion. I would have loved to see a few more pictures of Mr. Pussy, but otherwise it was perfect.

A tender and loving portrait that I would recommend to anyone who has ever felt a bond with an animal. A short book that will be a pleasure to re-read many times.

Just a lovely short book about a cat. I found it calming at a time when I needed that. Mr Pussy remained very much a cat throughout the book, he had his own style and character. The book really made me think about relationships. This book would make such a lovely gift. The Gentle Author writes with such humility, it is difficult to explain but the author's name probably says it all.
Gentle escapism.
