I read a book when I was a young girl about a wee boy who changed into a cat. His mother put him out into the street and he lived as an alley cat fending for himself. I have been trying to remember the name of it so I could try to get it for my grandchildren to read. As I recall it was not a child's book as such. Please can anyone help. Thank you Mary Galbraith

Thank you Gemini angel, you are an angel. I would have read it as Jennie as its been 50 years since I did. The story has always stuck in my mind. mairzie:D

You're welcome! I hope you can find a copy--they seem to be fairly expensive.

Yes they are. At the moment I am watching 2 copies on eBay.

Good luck, I hope you get one!
