| Description: |
Toby is a cross-eyed, bedraggled, ginger stray who enters Celia's life just when she needs him most. As her husband Ronnie's health deteriorates, Celia takes on Toby and soon realises that for both her and Ronnie, this little cat's rehabilitation is vital. |
| Synopsis: |
'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. |
