Behind a thin
veneer of respectability, life in a small English village is not all it may
seem. Through the eyes of Chumleigh the cat, the rural goings on are recorded
in this funny and poignant diary.

From a cat's
perspective, Chumleigh tells all about life in his house and the antics of his
neighbours. From domestic disharmony to a cannabis farm in next door's garden
shed, he sees it all and shares it all in his diary.

This is a cat
who enjoys the finer elements of feline existence like tuna, sleeping in the
warm and cat treats. But life doesn't always pan out the way he would like.

Supported by a
rich cast of locals, as odd and individualistic as still found in many small
villages, Chumleigh charts a year in his life. Traumatic visits to the vet,
turf wars with the local ginger tom and a desire to eliminate a neighbour's
yappy dog are all set down with great humour and insight.

If you've ever
lived in a village or owned a cat, this will make you laugh. If you've never
lived in a village and never owned a cat, this will be a wonderful insight into
what you have been missing.

The Secret
Diary of Chumleigh the Cat is full of adult humour covering a year in the
life of a cat who never ceases to be amazed at just what goes on around him!
