Description
Meet Doorkins, the smallest yet most recognisable member of the Cathedral. With wedding guests to entertain, meetings with the Queen to attend and tired staff to look after, Doorkins has a busy week lined up ahead of her.
Following the real life exploits of Doorkins, Southwark Cathedral's self-proclaimed 'Magnificat', this charming picture book gives a complete tour of the Cathedral, and is sure to raise a smile on the face of any cathedral attendee, or fan of cats.
A beautifully illustrated week in the life of a very special cathedral cat

Reviews
Southwark Cathedral is part of the fabric of London and Doorkins is part and parcel of the Southwark Cathedral family. I have very fond memories of my visits to Southwark Cathedral - each one with Doorkins taking pride of place. -- Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London
Doorkins performs an important function in Cathedral worship, and I know will appreciate this public expression of gratitude. -- Prunella Scales, Actress & Timothy West, Actor
Many years ago Doorkins came and made her home with us. She isn't just a cat, she has become a much loved friend and this delightful book reflects that. -- The Very Reverend Andrew Nunn, Dean of Southwark Cathedral
