Battersea
A delightful book of charming cat-themed characters and facts to enjoy each day and re-read year after year.

In November, meet Pinkieboy and Tittlebait, some of the cats beloved by garden designer Gertrude Jekyll, and the seventh generation of ginger cat named Jock who was so adored by Prime Minister Winston Churchill that dinner couldn’t be served at Chartwell until Jock was present; and in April discover how a cat came to be written into a key scene in the film of ‘The Godfather’; why Elvis is known at ‘Cat King’ in China; and meet Nala, a 21st century Instagram-influencer sensation.
