Fiona Moore tells us:
My book Rabbit in the Moon has been out in the world for one month!
My kitten Ezekiel, who has been out in the world for four months, is unimpressed.

Piet Nel says, “I told Maisie she could only read my copy of The Last Dangerous Visions when I’m done reading it myself, but she couldn’t resist taking a peek, anyway.”

Chris Barkley says, “Our cat Nova is a serious fan of television animation as witnessed here in this photograph.”
The book, The Rocky and Bullwinkle Book by Louis Chunovic (first published in 1996) is described as follows:
“The adventures of Bullwinkle J. Moose, Rocket J. Squirrel, and their bumbling adversaries, Boris and Natasha, come to life in a detailed account of each episode of the classic animated series, behind-the-scenes anecdotes about its creation, original artwork, and a host of memorabilia.”
So far, Nova has not been inspired to pull a rabbit out of one our hats…yet.

Clint Green lives in the North of England with two one-eyed rescue cats, shown below cuddling with his novels.
Here is Fin with Book 1 and Lola with the early proof of book 2. They are both rescue cats from Dubai brought over to the UK for a better life. Sadly, the litter had parvo and only Fin and Lola made it but it hasn’t stopped them in the slightest. Fin is a gentleman and very sweet and poised. Lola is a maniac and only ever wants attention, love and to chase insects.

Naomi Kritzer introduces us to Balto and Lottie:
I have three cats. And we have books all over, so yes, they definitely sleep near books sometimes, and one cat was so persistent in her desire to sleep on my laptop while I was using it that I put a cat trap (i.e., a nice box) on my desk in an attempt to entice her to sleep somewhere else. (This worked! She really likes her box.)
Here’s a picture of Balto sleeping under rather than on my e-reader (on which I’m reading John Scalzi’s Starter Villain, in a section about cats):
Here’s Lottie demonstrating why I installed the cat trap:
Here’s Lottie in her box:

Chris Willich says his cat Leo found a nice genre perch:
Not sure if sleeping in a game box counts, but when my daughter and I were playing Star Wars Risk in the garage, our cat Leo decided he’d found a great bed. (In case you’re wondering, the Battle of Endor did not go well for my Rebels!)

Teresa Peschel introduces us to Odin, the bookstore cat at Cupboard Maker Books in Enola, PA:
Odin was kind enough to sit next to my book The Vanished Pearls of Orlov by my alter-ego, Odessa Moon during my Bookstore Romance signing.
Odin is a rescued Turkish Angora cat and has become quite the star at Cupboard Maker Books. He regularly inspects every author who comes to sign. For Bookstore Romance Weekend, he visited all 40 authors over the three days.
If you’d like more information about Odin, visit “Bookstore Cats” at Cupboard Maker Books. Teresa adds, “In addition to their three bookstore cats, Cupboard Maker is a foster home for Castaway Critters. They’ve found furever homes for hundreds of cats over the years.”
