Mitzi’s Kittens & Me

Why do these things always happen to me???
Living in a neighbourhood where every other household seemed to own at least one cat I suppose there was a certain passive inevitability about what would eventually happen to a soft-hearted animal lover such as myself.
First one neighbourhood stray and then another moved into my back garden. Hungry and appealing, what could I do but offer them some food? Except that the second one forgot to mention that she had brought some ‘passengers’ along for the ride. Little did I imagine at the time that her five lovely kittens, adorable as they were, would turn my life and my house upside down, and that I would be the one being taken for a very bumpy, but strangely enchanting, ride.
Delightfully told as it happened over a period of several months, this is the lively and entertaining true story of how one man, living in peaceful tranquillity, suddenly found himself as the human ‘mum’ to five feisty and charming kittens.
