Once upon a time, the little Hebridean village of Tobermory—off the west coast of Scotland on the isle of Mull—was fortunate to have among its citizens a very special ginger cat. Walking to the beat of his own drum, the Tobermory Cat rides in cars, drives big yellow diggers, and speaks to otters, making himself a legend in his own lifetime. This delightful book follows the famous cats exploits as he ventures to all kinds of places—from the top of the fish van to the Lairds downstairs bathroom—to find the ideal spot for a snooze.
