The Nine Lives of a Cat - Bennett, Charles

This is the story of a Rasputin-like cat who seems to have an escape for every near-death situation it encounters. Surviving hanging, burning and falling off a roof, what gets it in the end should be obvious. Written and illustrated by Charles Bennett, this Victorian era children's book was originally published in 1860 and is re-printed here to help preserve and introduce new generations to the work of a truly gifted cartoonist.
