Now that I have my own book out (Bruce Finds A Home), mum and dad have been going around schools and libraries to read it to children. But they never take me with them! Now they have two cute replicas to take along - one of me as a kitten and one of me as a grown-up. They were made by this clever lady. Aren't they cute?

I had a pawsome Auckland book launch at The Dorothy Butler Book Shop last Sunday! I'm looking forward to the Dunedin launch at The University Book Shop this Saturday 17 February at 10.30am (all welcome). But where can you get my book if you don't live in Auckland or Dunedin? Well, you can get it at all good New Zealand bookshops ... and you can also buy it online! Too easy! Here are the stockists I'm currently aware of:

  • Dorothy Butler Book Shop
  • University Book Shop
  • Time Out Bookstore
  • Fishpond

And of course you can buy it on this website (just click 'shop' on the top right).

Fever coat - what is it?

Bruce the Cat followers are fascinated by the kitten which changed colour from grey to black within a few months.
 
Fever Coat is a condition that occurs when a pregnant cat falls sick due to an infection, or if the cat is stressed during pregnancy. It can also occur when cats are put on medication by their owners without knowing that their pets are pregnant.
 
Fever Coat appears in kittens because the pigments have not been properly deposited in the fur.  This causes parts of the fur to appear silver-grey, cream or reddish as a result. 
 
Fever coat remains present for up to 6-8months in newborn kittens but eventually fades away. (Bruce’s coat was completely black by the time he was about four months old.)

You can see Bruce's transformation in the video below.
