Seeking a distraction from her own troubles, the author and renowned pet columnist, Celia Haddon begins a project to transform Tilly into a household pet.

By loving Tilly she found she could love her inner self.
Drawing on her years of experience as a pet agony aunt on the pages of the Daily Telegraph, Celia Haddon unravels the mysteries of cat behaviour and dispenses tips and advice to help readers make their cats happy.
Start training your kitten early. Ban small girls from the house. Small girls are tempted to commit that ultimate crime - dressing up cats. Be a conscientious door attendant. Cats want to be in when they are out, out when they are in, and sometimes both simultaneously. This work is a collection of cat wisdom for cat lovers with practical advice.
When Jo saw Anna feeding Molly meatballs from her bra, she knew that here was a woman after her own heart. What she couldn't know was that this was the start of a friendship that would take them both on an incredible and bizarre journey. From nearly drowning in swimming pools during filming to tearing around Paris in search of Rin Tin Tin's grave, the more the dog world opened up to them, the more convinced they became, like Bardot and Mae West before them, that man is not necessarily a girl's best friend. This is a hilarious, touching tale of how two women's lives were transformed by their pets.
Cats have padded silently into our hearts, bringing with them their grace, their independence, and their essential mystery. Anyone who lives with a cat knows the strange and mysterious bond that grows between human and animal, as they make houses into homes, heal stress, and provide endless entertainment. In this exquisitely produced anthology, drawn from the writing of cat lovers through the ages, Celia Haddon offers a testimony and a tribute to that unique and rewarding relationship between humans and their feline companions in which cats, in their utmost complexity, remain among us but not of us. Above all, she reminds us of the truth of why cats matter.
Though humans cannot speak cat, they vocalise repeatedly. Most of their vocalisations are meaningless and can be completely ignored. In urban areas, fun can be got from hunting human objects such as mink stoles or old underpants. For some reason this kind of prey is usually greeted with human laughter. To get a male human off an armchair, jump on the back of it, hold down his head with a firm paw and lick his bald patch. Purring right into the ear is one of the kindest ways to tell a human being that it is time to get out of bed.
'Hunched among the shoes, half hidden by my dresses, filthy and terrified, he looked like a cat that might be seriously ill. He was toast-rack thin, with all his ribs sticking out, even through his longish hair...' As Toby's story unfolds, so does Celia's. From her alcoholic exploits as a Fleet Street journalist during the 60s, to the death of her mother, Celia's bond with the feline world becomes stronger. Ronnie, a former war correspondent with an incredible career also finds himself succumbing to feline charms and comes to need Toby as much as Celia does. This is a story of courage, hope and love in the most trying of circumstances.
