I'm reading book 4 of the Snogging series. The series has the best cat character I've ever read, Angus, who is part Scottish wild cat. They walk him on a leash and he's always clawing the family up, except the little sister whom he inexplicably allows to dress him up. He terrorize the poodles next door, and then fell in love with the purebred who moved in across the street. They had a torrid love affair, and before he waken taken away to be fixed he managed to impregnate her. Now the neighbors are stuck with these wild kittens... I can't wait to see how they turn out.
The heroine, who is a troublemaker herself, loves Angus' wild ways. This is what she says about the kittens:
"The kittykats have opened their eyes!!! They are sooooooo sweet and, as I explained to Jas, 'Now they can see to fight properly.'"
The series also has one of the best child characters I've ever read (heroine's sister). She's always coming to sleep in our heroine's bed, and she brings an entourage with her. It usually comprises at least Scuba Barbie, as well as any latest additions, such as her "pet" haggis (which she and Angus later eat), or a "pet" potato. For Christmas the heroine carves her a couple carrots with head scarves.
