Product Information

At the heart of what I do is determination and detail – there’s nobody half-hearted on our books. I see what I do as being like a surgeon doing an operation in a hospital. Everything must be done exactly right.

Face of a Thug: In The Maltese kitten, Sam initially views Slasher as nothing more than a weathered, swaggering, hot-tempered alley cat, and Jimmy as a hulking brute. Then he sees Jimmy laugh off some damage Slasher caused to the merchandise in Jimmy's store and nuzzle the cat's cheek while Slasher looks up at him adoringly. Washy Watchy: Street cat Oscar watches the machines from the laundromat window as entertainment. He considers it to be as good as television and especially likes the Soaps. Later on he talks about a tv show he saw where the police just chased a guy in circles until they all fell down and is reminded that was the rinse cycle. We’re not miracle workers or superheroes, but we get results 80% of the time. And our clients are grateful, we get Christmas cards and thank you gifts – we stay in touch.People who adore their indoor cats know that one of the worst events to ever happen is when a door is left ajar and their curious cat slips out and goes missing. Or you come home from a long day of work only to find the window screen has been punched out and your indoor cat has escaped. The leash-trained Henry sports a lighted cat collar with a small camera so Freeman can keep up with his search in the dark and see what he sees. Tranquilizer Dart: In The Maltese Kitten, Evil Poacher Herman Hench carries a dart gun that he uses to put multiple people and animals to sleep for several hours. Entertainingly Wrong: The cops instantly believe the burglaries were committed by Max the handyman, using a key to come in through the front door and setting the scene to make it look like an outside burglar. The readers and Sam know that their wrong from the start, due to a cat across the street having seen a burglar climbing the building and dropping down onto terraces.

Political Overcorrectness: In the second book Sam meets a cat representing the Feline Rights Organization, which wants to change the name "cat" to Feline-Americans (due to words like cataract and cataclysm having cat in them) and call themselves animal companions instead of pets.Indeed, it turns out that One Ear’s uncle has a secret weapon: deadly fart gas. He invades the police station and kills the Yellow Cat by farting at its face in a prolonged burst. Wearing protective astronaut style glass helmets, the police raid the mouse labyrinth when the mice are having a lecherous, drunken party which turns into a bout of knife-throwing at the cats who retaliate with gunfire against “the terrorists”. A beach shoot out follows, with uncle receiving red bullet holes to the chest and falling into the sea.

Do you know about psychic powers? Fiona, an "ordinary" girl who has spent more than ten years hiding her identity as a psychic, is involved in a building crash while jerking off a cat in a cafe one day. A lot of people who get into this work do so because they love dogs and kitties and think it’s fun to work with animals, but you’re basically a detective-cum-counsellor. Much of the time we are working with humans who are experiencing the most grievous situation of their lives. Sam the Cat: Detective is a 1996 mystery novel by Linda Stewart for both adults and children. An Affectionate Parody to the Hard Boiled Detective genre, the story follows Sam, a cat who lives above a mystery bookstore and works as a private eye in exchange for tuna (and for big cases salmon) and finds himself hired to catch a (human) cat burglar and retrieve several valuables.The book has three sequels, The Big Catnap, The Maltese Kitten, and The Great Catsby.
