Reigning Cats and Dogs ... Donkeys, Goats and Pigs - Paperback

by Pamela Davenport (Author)

A memoir of a life lived with animals - the good, great, heartbreaking and hilarious.

Much loved teacher, friend, historian and animal lover Pamela Davenport, reminisces about the many beloved animals who have passed through her life. In the semi-rural suburb of Kuraby on Brisbane's south, Pamela has lived with and cared for a host of colourful characters- from dogs and cats, to donkeys, pigs, goats, sheep, ponies, and more. Each pet carefully named from Egyptian and Classical mythology, reflecting Pamela's dual passions for history and animals. Over the years, Pamela entertained generations of students and friends with the antics of her animals, and in Reigning Cats and Dogs, Donkeys, Goats and Pigs, she pulls together the stories of these wonderful creatures, to entertain us all over again with her generosity and warmth for them all.

Above all, Pamela's love for all animals shines through, and with wonderful insight, and helpful anecdotes, she opens a window into the love and richness they can bring to our lives.
