A Cat Abroad (biographical) The same book has been published under For The Love of Norton.

There are only three things a cat needs for a fine life – good food, a comfortable bed, and universal praise and love. Luckily – after converting his human, Peter, from confirmed cat hater to cat lover supreme – Norton has plenty of all three. And they're about to get better, as his Peter and girlfriend Janice decide to up sticks and spend a year in rural France.

Norton in Provence is like – well – the cat who'd got the cream, whether he is hunting for mice in the rambling garden, hanging out with the local stray cats in the sun-drenched town square or being treated to delicacies from the chef in fine restaurants. And with Norton by his side, Peter finds that his new Gallic neighbours welcome their English-speaking guests with open arms.

Over the course of the year, Peter learns how to sit back, relax and enjoy the pleasures of a simple life. In A Cat Called Norton, the eponymous cat taught Peter how to love. Now, in For the Love of Norton, he teaches Peter and his girlfriend what it is to truly live.
