He is an aristocat. He is a noble Siamese. He is very proud. He’s no ordinary cat. Found on a ranch outside the Mexican city of Tampico, his new master takes him home to the art colony of San Miguel de Allende in the central highlands of Mexico. Here, he becomes Sir Nobby and begins adventures that take him into some rough barrios. Not a scaredy cat, Sir Nobby tells an exciting story. While he is no kiss-and-tell cat, he does not shy away from the details of his life as a computer cat; an artist cat whose work gains world-wide attention; a bird watcher cat; and a feline philosopher. Sir Nobby, as you see, is a true Renaissance cat. In these candid memoirs (which he related to his famous master, artist Leonard Brooks) Nobby lives through an emotional rollercoaster. From his early days on the coast near Tampico to the big and beautiful garden of his new home, he meets many friends—including Scruffy the Scrap Cat, the lovely Whiskers, the funny Payaso, and poor Florence and her lovable friend Tabby. There is even Samantha the Bombshell, a California cat who is quite a slinky sweetheart. Sir Nobby tells his unique story: from pathos to humor to self-fulfillment, all with a distinct “meowtalk” accent. |
