Last trip to the library I stocked up on the newest in the Mrs. Murphy series. I'd forgotten how much fun they are to read. This last week we've been 'entertaining' the customer from ... well, I'll not go into details but dipping into this series was a wonderful relief. Thank you for reminding me of it.

I can't remember the author of "The cat who went to Paris" book -- that was the first of three book about a Scottish Fold cat written by a former cat-hating absolutely smitten cat owner. I can't quite think of the cat's name either, but he was a cutie (Norton? I associate it with one of Jackie Gleason's associate's characters???). Adored the first book, had trouble with the second book cause the cat died, have seen the 3rd book but not read it... Real life adventures of a cat owned by a script writer who jets back and forth between Europe and NYC, mainly -- who in the arts adores the cat and just adventures of a first time cat owner told wittily.
