Once there was an old woman who lived alone. Or so her neighbours said. But she didn’t live alone. She lived with seven cats…
…On cool nights they purred by the fire. The old woman purred
loudest of all.
When the old woman is moved to a ’shiny new flat’, she is forced to leave her seven cats behind. But cats have long memories, as well as nine lives each, and they miss her as much as she misses them. Late one night, the old woman braves freezing weather to check on the cats, and that’s when they prove how very much she means to them!
A heart-warming story for cat-lovers of all ages.
