A Night Out

"A Night Out" by Edward Peple is a lighthearted narrative likely written in the early 20th century. This book is a humorous fictional tale that explores the life and adventures of a wealthy Persian cat named Omar Ben Sufi. It delves into themes of class distinction, identity, and the contrast between the lives of pampered pets and streetwise animals, all while providing a comedic take on social interactions among cats. The story follows Omar Ben Sufi, who becomes bored and restless in his luxurious home, where he enjoys a pampered existence. When a street cat named Ringtail Pete enters his life, Omar is introduced to the wild and adventurous world outside his garden wall. Over the course of his night out, Omar engages in the thrill of hunting frogs, befriends other street cats, and even finds himself in a catfight with a notorious bully named Ash-Can Sam. Ultimately, despite the chaos and misadventures, Omar discovers a sense of freedom and exhilaration that he never experienced within the confines of his high-society life, culminating in a humorous and enlightening exploration of self-discovery.
