Morgana, the self-important Maine Coon mix; Melisandre, the sardonic black cat with a Goth streak; and Grizabella, the sharp-tongued young tabby, suddenly have opinions about everything—from food and litter boxes to television, politics, personal privacy, and the baffling habits of humans.

In August 1914, three weeks after Britain entered the First World War, a Canadian veterinarian on his way to the front bought an orphaned bear cub from a trapper at a railway stop in northern Ontario. He paid twenty dollars. He named her after the city he had just left. Four years later a boy met her at the London Zoo, borrowed her name for a stuffed toy he already owned, and gave the toy a surname he had taken from a swan. Everything in that sentence is a substitution. The bear was named for a city she never saw. The toy was named for a bear it did not resemble.
