‘A cracking narrative’ Observer

They say cats have nine lives, and that’s certainly true of Kaspar. From the glamorous suites of the Savoy Hotel to a crowded lifeboat and the hustle and bustle of New York City, Kaspar proves that no cat is too small for big adventures.

But then this is no ordinary cat. He’s Kaspar, Prince of Cats – and the only cat to survive the sinking of the Titanic . . .
