Well this is exciting - these are advance copies of the #Brucethecat book Bruce Finds A Home!

Thank you so much to Mary Egan Publishing who have done such a brilliant job on the production, and of course to all our Kickstarter backers - we literally couldn't have done this without you!

We're on track to send our books to backers in November as promised. If you didn't pre-order a copy, don't worry - they'll be available for sale through my website a bit later (I'll be sure to let you know when). 

Thanks for your support everyone!

It's my birthday coming up on 3 November, and I'll finally be in my terrible twos! Last year I didn't give much advance warning about my birthday which made it a bit hard for those of you who wanted to send cards. So this year I'm being much more organised and giving you four weeks notice!
But the big question is - what should I do for my party?

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.

By George they're handsome

28/5/2017

When I was a tiny kitten George Takei beamed me up by featuring my story on his Facebook page. I've gone on to become a huge George fan, and today I'm boldly going where no cat has gone before... revealing the top five similarities between George Takei and me, Bruce the Cat.
Picture
1. Let's start with the most obvious one. We're both incredibly handsome. 
Picture
2. We both look great in costume. (The trouble with Tiddles is that I don't really enjoy wearing my one.)
Picture
3. We're known for our expressive paws. 
Picture
4. We're both pleasing in plaid. (Resistance is futile!) 
Picture
​5. And most importantly of all, we both stick up for what we believe in.  (One of us is slightly more focused on human rights and the other one is slightly more focused on cat rights. I'll let you try to figure out who is who.)

​Another similarity between us is that we've both written books! You can find out more about George's books here, and more about my book here and below.
