Well - the famous musical...sure many of you have seen its, came from a book of poems by the American born poet TS Eliot- called OLD POSSUMS BOOK OF PRACTICAL CATS. And look where that took him - to Andrew Lloyd Webber and his classic musical. Brilliant men, both and I, for one am glad they found each other.
Here is one of TS Eliot's Cat poems - THE NAMING OF CATS. It is a delight and for me conjures up those irrisitible, difficult, independent little animals.
