About this ebook
Casper became a national celebrity when newspapers ran the story of the amazing cat that regularly took the No. 3 bus on 11-mile journeys around his home town, Plymouth, in Devon. While his devoted owner, Susan Finden, had wondered where her elusive pet was disappearing to each day, Casper was brightening the lives of countless commuters as they went about their business. Bus drivers, too, were getting well-acquainted with Casper, and notices went up in their depot alerting staff that a very special passenger might board their vehicle. In fact, he became a mascot for the bus company, and pictures of him and Susan adorned No. 3 buses.
When Casper was sadly killed by a car in early 2010 messages of sympathy flooded in from places as far a field as Australia and Argentina. It quickly became clear that Casper and his remarkable story had touched the lives of so many people around the world.
Movingly told by the owner who loved him dearly, Casper the Commuting Catis the touching story of a very special black-and-white cat who rode the bus and stole our hearts.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Beautiful story. Casper touched so many lives. Lovely cat. It is gut wrenching to think about him hit by a car. I wish his guardian took better care of him. Cats get killed all the time from roaming around. Heartbreaking to read. That is why i took a star away. Could not help but cry.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Casper's story in print. Very moving... So sad but so lovely at the same time. Great to hear what affect he had on people's lives. A beautiful cat, taken far too soon but a just tribute to him.
