NEW NON-FICTION CAT BOOK by Mollie Hunt

Creating Comfort for Your Senior Cat: Stories, Poems, and Illustrations of Cats in Their Golden Years

“I LOVE THIS BOOK! I felt like I came to personally know each of these endearing cats…” —Rosa House, author

I’m so excited to announce the publication of my new book, Creating Comfort for Your Senior Cat: Stories, Poems, and Illustrations of Cats in Their Golden Years. It is exactly what the title says, a compilation of stories and poems I’ve written about my own cats and others I have cared for as they face their elder years. In this book, I go beyond their necessary veterinary care to what happened when they got older and what we did to make them comfortable under circumstances that arose.

I realize I am better known for writing cozy and sci-fantasy fiction, but as devoted cat-person, I decided it was time to put some of the things I’ve learned into words that can  be of help to others. Since I love the older cats, that seemed the perfect place to start. This book, with its poetry and photos of the cats themselves, has been a joy to produce.

I am not a vet, nor am I giving any advice meant to replace veterinarian medicine, but as a long-time cat shelter volunteer and a cat foster parent, I’ve had a lot of  hands-on experience with cats. My own beloved cat Tyler recently celebrated his twenty-first birthday!

As cats reach senior age, there comes a time when things begin to change, and we must be willing to change along with them.

 Dirty Harry developed arthritis. Heating pads and warming blankets were only the beginning.

Tinkerbelle had a heart murmur. Diminishing stress and overstimulation in a home with four cats was a challenge.

Ginchan was seventeen when the litter box issues began. When a medical cause was ruled out, we found ways for him to still live his best life.
