Victoria, a real tyrant of a cat, spent so many years training Mrs
Bell to be her ideal hostess that, at her death, Mrs Bell feels it
would be disrespectful to replace that formidable creature. But her
resolve wears down and she agrees to take a marmalade kitten. No
sooner has she done so than she is offered a Siamese that she
simply cannot resist. This is the story of a writer seduced by the
charms of two very different kittens: Curdy, lively and
mischievous, and Minka, imperious in manner and in gesture (and who
cannot stand the sight of the ginger upstart). One of the most
enchanting books about cats ever written, Minka and Curdy describes
their adventures - and misadventures - and the merry dance they
lead Mrs Bell. Illustrated throughout with line drawings, it is the
perfect companion for all lovers of cats and all admirers of
Antonia White.
