Ten Poems About Cats by Various Authors

The poems in this pamphlet are evidence of some wonderful cats and their amusing and endearing ways, from Thom Gunn’s kittens galloping like a re-enactment of  Ben Hur along the corridor, to Jen Hadfield’s cat asking to be let in at the kitchen door…then out again… .    It goes without saying that this pamphlet is best enjoyed with a cat on your lap.

‘Puss with delight beyond expression,
Surveyed the scene and took possession.’

from ‘The Retired Cat’ by William Cowper (1731 – 1800)
