“The lonely and unhappy little girl with dark curly hair and large blue-green eyes was soon made a fuss of by the nuns, and because she seemed so young to be away from her home and family, they allowed her certain privileges. One of these, a matter of some envy among the older girls in her dormitory, was permission to take a kitten to bed with her at night.” – Felix Barker describing the beginning of Vivien’s comradeship with cats while a schoolgirl at Roehampton Convent.
