Sid is a cat who is addicted to having six meals a day and glories in this lifestyle. Manipulative, persuasive and a charmer he has wrapped everybody round his little paw - each owner believes that Sid belongs to them only .. until the day he is found out! |
“All this work sometimes wore Sid out. But he didn't care, as long as he had his six dinners. And, besides, he liked being ... scratched in six different places ... and sleeping in six different beds.”
