Day 3 of Christmas brought me a parcel at the Post Office which contained: When we were kittens! This book, published by Clan Destine Press, is the second volume of the adventures of Dougal whose story was first to be found in Dougal's diary, also published by Clan Destine Press. So this is the sequel we have been waiting for!
After a shaky start in life, Dougal fetched up at Lort Smith Animal Hospital with his foster-sister Shadow. But now they both live at the Seddon Found Cats Home with Man and Woman and Miss Belladonna the Black, who as the earthly representative of Basht regally supervises operations from her jeweled throne. The story of Dougal and Shadow's initiations at Seddon were narrated in Dougal's diary. Now Man aka David Greagg who was Dougal's amanuensis for the first book has shadow-written (yes, I know it really should be Dougal-written) a second volume with Dougal.
Dougal has his own website here where you can find out all about him, Shadow, Belladonna, Man and Woman and join Dougal's fanclub. Dougal also has a presence on Facebook under the Gaidhlig name of Dubh Geal. So join him there if you would like to converse.
As for me, I am off to do a quick read of When we were kittens before Xena gets any ideas from it!
Sounds like a great read :)
