Praise for Cats in the Belfry


'A chaotic, hilarious and heart-wrenching love affair with this most characterful of feline breeds'

THE PEOPLE'S FRIEND


'If you read Cats in the Belfry the first time round, be prepared to be enchanted all over again. If you haven't, then expect to laugh out loud, shed a few tears and be totally captivated by Doreen's stories of her playful and often naughty Siamese cats'


YOUR CAT magazine



'An invasion of mice prompted Tovey and her husband to acquire a cat – or rather for Sugieh to acquire them. A beautiful Siamese, Sugieh turned out to be a tempestuous, iron-willed prima donna who soon had her running circles around her. And that's before she had kittens! A funny and poignant reflection of life with a Siamese, that is full of cheer'


THE GOOD BOOK GUIDE


'Cats in the Belfry will ring bells with anyone who's ever been charmed – or driven to distraction – by a feline'

THE WEEKLY NEWS

'The most enchanting cat book ever'


Jilly Cooper


'Every so often, there comes along a book – or if you're lucky, books – which gladden the heart, cheer the soul and actually immerse the reader in the narrative. Such books are written by Doreen Tovey'


CAT WORLD


Praise for Cats in May



'If you loved Doreen Tovey's Cats in the Belfry you won't want to miss the sequel, Cats in May. The Tovey's attempt to settle down to a quiet life in the country but, unfortunately for them, their tyrannical Siamese cats have other ideas. From causing an uproar on the BBC to staying out all night, Sheba and Solomon's outrageous behaviour leaves the Tovey's at their wits' end. This witty and stylish tale will have animal lovers giggling to the very last page'


YOUR CAT magazine
