Mar. 27, 1922

Dick King-Smith is more popular in England than America, though some may have heard of one of his books: Babe. He was born on March 27, 1922 and went on to write lots of children's books, all with cute animals. For our purposes these stories involve majorly cats:

Three Terrible Trins
Martin's Mice
Find the White Horse

Cats are just one subject in King-Smith's menagerie of books.
