About this listen
Martin, a kitten, is branded a 'wimp' by his siblings for his friendly interest in mice.
He loves caring for them and can't understand their desire for freedom. Only when he becomes the pet of a big city apartment dweller does he realise why his pets deserted him.

'The story is fast-paced and gripping.' (Publishers Weekly)
'An engaging animal fantasy with plenty of humorous insight into the human condition, King-Smith's story has humor and a fast pace which will appeal to younger readers.' (School Library Journal)
I feel that the narrator had no awareness of the character’s personality and misrepresented them. I felt Martin was quiet, thoughtful type of cat but the voice effect of narrator turned these beautiful characters into rather creepy, very creepy! annoying ones with a foreboding and sinister vibe.
It was hard to listen to. Impossible to enjoy.
That made me sad.
