“It was just a dream!”, sighed Bullpuss, glancing over towards his companions, who had rushed in from the garden having heard the news. 

Mrs Ribby and her daughter Ruby had nearly wrecked the cat-flap in their anxious dash to support Bullpuss.

A story of Space-Lynxes and their inter-galactic mission to identify all earth dwelling felines, make contact, and ensure that all is well for the future of their planet. With a nod towards Star-Trek, Life on Mars and dogs in Sputniks. Examine the illustrations carefully for “in-jokes”. British humour!

For cat jazz fans.

Louisa's Ginger Nuts series of humorous cat books are lavishly illustrated and aimed at a wide range of children's reading abilities. This story is specially for the older parent reading to a child, since the jokes require a knowledge of the jazz pantheon and songs from the Great American Song-book.

In our beloved English Lake District, there are often potential controversies to be navigated through, concerning the differing views and requirements of those who live and work there and the huge influx of tourists, the vast majority of whom are respectable, caring people. This has been going on for a few hundred years.

Bullpuss is to accompany his Young Mistress when she returns for her second year at University. He is a young Norwegian Forest cat just leaving kittenhood. Samantha, his Young Mistress, is facing a difficult time with the breakdown of her parents' family life. She copes very badly with everything and lets her cat down. She abandons her course and her pet cat.

The majority of her fellow students in the shared private accommodation are too selfish to take any responsibility. Bullpuss seeks friends and allies from the local pet population together with selected wild animals.

Abandoned and escaped guinea pigs demonstrate their rodent heritage and locate and adapt suitable quarters almost in the wild, but not quite.

Allotments, disused garages and sheds provide ample cover and shelter for enterprising animals, who are amazed when the cats from Louisa's Ginger Nuts find them and actually offer to help.

Dealing with stray cats is often difficult, and when the family are cat lovers, they invariably think about how best to help. The first consideration is the overall extra costs incurred. The second is whether the stray can be introduced successfully with the resident cat family. The third is the complexity identified when the "stray" actually has a home, but their people are not fully in tune with the feline requirements for Pussy Cat happiness.

Fun and games with robotic developments; not just vacuum cleaners, but station concourse floor cleaners, followed by automatic food and snack delivery robots. Is the world being taken over by AI or is it just a rain forest plot. The cats will hopefully maintain the upper paw over everything that ASTRO tries.

Here in Great Britain, we have a long history concerning trains and locomotives, starting originally in the Victorian era and precipitating immense changes to the built environment whilst calling time on the canals and waterways which had transported goods during the Industrial Revolution.

Fuelled by coal, coke, water, steam and nostalgia, the long missed days of steam locomotives, with their well oiled mechanics, noise and smoky funnels are revered by a enthusiastic following, started by today’s great-grandfathers and passed down through the generations.
