Summary: A MUST-READ FOR ALL CAT LOVERS!
Review: This feline odyssey is set in war-ravaged England starting after the evecuation of Dunkirk and continues for a year afterwards, Blitzcat is an extraordinary adventure story of heroism and stoicism, of compassion and brutality. Lord Gort is a female black cat (considerd lucky by servicemen) who travels around England seeking her beloved soldier master. (psi-trailing)

This plucky heroine will tug at your heart as World War II causes her to lose several of her legendary-allotted nine lives--with modesty and little fuss. She accepts all manner of major disasters and minor set- backs calmly, inspiring the various humans whose lives she shares to break the barriers of the limited existence. The touch of this gentle black cat changes lives for the better, by putting her temporary owners in touch with their inner selves--making them more human and caring.

Her peregrinations take her to Dover's mined beaches and Coventry's bombed old town; she endures war first hand by an open UXB pit and aboard a bomber. She endures sensory deprivation and travels internationally, always searching one or the other of her soldier masters. She keeps faith with her kittens and paradoxically the dream of her first hearth. Lord Gort is enchanting--capable of bringing out the best in her people, and helping them in their own physical and moral survival. An insightful tale which will educate and charm the reader.
