This is the third book in the Italian Trilogy...'Cats Do Eat Spaghetti' is very interesting and entertaining experience about living with rescue cats and Italian culture in general.....In this delightful book about adopting feral cats that through patience and hard work become domesticated the fourteen chapters will make your heart feel better for having read them: The early chapters are set in the north of England and then in the county of Surrey. They then move abroad, to a couple of beautiful medieval villages on the shores of Lake Como in northern Italy, to where Paul and his wife emigrated in 1991. 'Cats Do Eat Spaghetti' includes the last twenty seven years of their relationship whilst living alongside not only their adopted indoor cats but also with the local feral cats that will evoke pleasure, sadness, sentiment and affection within the heart of the committed cat lover. As the story progresses it includes their sometimes problematic Italian neighbours, who are certainly not cat lovers. Some of them do however love cats, but in a divergent and alarming way and that is to eat them during the winter months as a roasted accompaniment to piping-hot-polenta. The book also embraces their daily association with the little darlings. Paul and his wife are not just surrogate parents they have dedicated their lives to the happiness and contentment of their cats. As an example of their devotion they allowed themselves a holiday five years ago. It was the first one they'd had for twenty years. This wasn't because of any misfortune or lack of funds but because they don't like having to be away from their babies for too long in case they fret. They only took the risk of seeing other parts of their adopted country because they found a couple of baby-sitters they could trust and who were prepared to stay in their house to look after their cats as well as they try to do it..
