In the books they have a cat.  Well, more than one, as the stories span
quite a time frame.  No more than one at a time in any I've read so far,
but I'm only a little way into them.  I just got hooked on them this
year.  Wanted to read them in order, but couldn't find the second one
so I've skipped a bit.
I loved the scene where she was trying to make butter from table cream,
because they'd run out of butter coupons during rationing. Reminded me
of the time my sister and I tried to make butter. ;)
... If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side.
