(2) 4-6 Translated by David Colmer. In this Dutch novel from 1970, Mr. Tibble is a shy, failed newspaperman; Miss Minou, a cat imprisoned in human form, gets scoops from her cat cronies and passes them on to Tibble. The human characters in this romp are painted with an affectionately satirical brush, and the cats are hilarious--all ego, street smarts, and sensuality. Pretty much catnip for feline fanciers.
