This little book is about cats; cats of all shapes, sizes and colours, and specifically about those that have shared their lives with the great and well-respected astronomer Sir Patrick Moore over a lifetime of 80 years. This is Patrick's very personal account of the cats who have been part of his family, beginning with Bonnie, who died at the grand old age of twenty, through to Jeannie and Ptolemy, the two beloved felines that he lives with currently. Showing a side of Patrick Moore that's not usually seen, readers can also test their cat's intelligence with Patrick's quiz! Fully illustrated.
