Inspired by the famous work by TS Eliot, this is a collection of poems based on his characters and the various cats that lurk around here, as well as a smattering of others.

"I guess that, too. But they'll always think we're babies."
"Well, babies don't explore the city alone, do they?"
"Babies cry."
"Exactly! We're real toms now, and we don't cry."
Laughing and filled with a newfound determination, Bill Bailey triumphantly stared down the view and blew a raspberry. "Take that, London!"

Summary
Skimbleshanks started to the end of the car, Jemima walking beside him. 'I still marvel at how you manage it,' she signed, hands and face perfectly tuned in terms of expression. 'The passengers by day, and the mail by night!'
The older cat chuckled. “I wonder myself, sometimes. I think I owe it all to force o’ habit and the power of napping.” He shot Jemima a small, almost secretive smile. “You should give it a try, someday, when m’down with a cold or too old and stiff to operate the train on my own.”
Jemima laughed. 'Yes, sir, maybe someday.'
(a little taste of Skimbleshanks's life, from the day's rail to the night mail.)

Summary
Munkustrap and Tugger's relationship had never run smooth, mostly thanks to their very different personalities, but when Tugger takes an interest in the newly arrived nephew of the esteemed Bustopher Jones things get complicated. Quaxo himself has little interest in making friends. All he wants to do is to look after his twin sister and keep his magic hidden, he didn't think that was too much to ask. But things get even more complicated when even more new arrivals show up, this time with links to the long banished Macavity. Despite this the Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat who just can't help but get involved, and it turns out Munkustrap isn't so different to him after all. And we all know what they say about cats and curiosity.
