Velvet Paws and the Taste of Happiness

New adventures of Minkus the Tomcat

They come in the twilight, striding proudly on velvet paws. They are the cats of Blumenrode, Lea’s old hometown. All the local cats of Blumenrode regularly convene at »moonlight pond gatherings«, where Lea and her beloved tomcat Minkus listen raptly to many absorbing life stories, including that of the musically gifted Humperdink and the charmingly named Heart’s Delight. What’s more, Minkus has a special task to fulfil, for the tranquillity is in danger of being shattered… A delightful novel for cat lovers everywhere.
