About This Item
Casper became a national celebrity when newspapers ran the story of the amazing cat that regularly took the No. 3 bus on 11-mile journeys around his home town of Plymouth,in Devon.
While his devoted owner,Susan Finden,had wondered where her elusive pet was disappearing to each day,Casper was brightening the lives of countless commuters as they went about their business.Bus drivers,too,were getting well-acquainted with Casper,and notices went up in their depot alerting staff that a very special passenger might board their vehicle.In fact,he became a mascot for the bus company,and pictures of him and Susan adorned No. 3 buses.
When Casper was sadly killed by a car in early 2010 messages of sympathy flooded in from around the world.It quickly became clear that Casper and his remarkable story had touched the lives of so many people.
Movingly told by the owner who loved him dearly,'Casper the Commuting Cat' is the touching story of a very special black-and-white cat who rode the bus and stole our hearts.
