Review # 1 was written on 2018-01-06 00:00:00 Casey Hurley A charming quick read, full of humorous stories of English country life, centered on the loving ministrations of two naturalists to two Siamese cats. The cats aren't spoiled; they just act that way.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-06-07 00:00:00 Noah Maciag The sequel is just as good as the original (Cats in the Belfry). Along with feline antics we get the adventures of Blondin the squirrel, whom Tovey and her husband adopted before they started keeping Siamese cats. (He was just as destructive as the pets that came after him, but I had to love his fondness for tea.) Solomon and Sheba appear on the BBC and object in the strongest possible terms when Doreen and Charles try to introduce a third Siamese, a kitten named Samson, to the household. The flu, visits from the rector's grandson, and periodic troubles with their old farmhouse, including a chimney fire, round out this highly amusing story of life with pets. My copy, which I think is a first edition, came from one of the bookshops in Hay-on-Wye.
