Puss In Boots and Dick Whittington’s Cat are just two famous felines. From being worshipped in Ancient Egypt to being vilified as witches’ familiars in Europe, cats have long been associated with the supernatural. They also appear in countless stories throughout history. Author Charlie Creed joins Jo Durrant to talk about some magical, mysterious, and majestic cats.
