Publisher's Synopsis
Henrietta was just an ordinary New York City cat. But seventeen years of travel, criss-crossing the globe, made her an indispensable companion for foreign correspondent Christopher S. Wren and his family as he reported on world events. In Russia, Henrietta befriended Nobel Laureate Andrei Sakharov and disrupted a diplomatic dinner to present a mouse to the guest of honour. Lost for weeks in Egypt, she survived the wild streets of Cairo and vied with the Nile River rats for scraps. When she lived in Canada she learned to plough through snowdrifts like a sled dog and she spent her twilight years in South Africa jousting with exotic birds. Wren's hilarious account shows this ever-resourceful cat helping the family cope with adventures and chaos in faraway places.
