Description

'From Invercargill to the far north, there are cats on the tools in every corner of the country. In this book, we're going on a road trip to meet just some of the hard-working cats of Aotearoa New Zealand, starting in the deep south and scooting all the way up - a bit like a cat scaling a Christmas tree.'

Humorous profiles of 45 real-life pets from around New Zealand and the many jobs they have in their community: from winery cats to artists' muse, four police cats bringing law and paw-der to our fair country, a seeing-eye cat and a supermarket helper welcoming locals and tourists alike in Queenstown, these fluffy felines are here to bust the myths that cats are lazy creatures.
