Absolutely a page-turning hit!
Mystery, humour, friendship, family…! This graphic novel has such an engaging story-line, compelling characters, and laugh-out-loud moments!
The illustrations bring the story to life, and I loved the expressions for every character.

Totally ready for the sequel…!

This is very wholesome—great for young readers who love animals and are interested in vegetarianism/veganism. It is almost realistic fiction except for the fact that NYC has lots of superheroes.. And the 217 strangely precocious cats that Katie is hired to cat sit by her neighbor Madeleine. Could she be behind the string of crimes being committed...?

My son picked this out for me to read, and it was cute. It isn’t something I would have picked up on my own, but I can think of some students that would enjoy this story.

This is a great graphic novel for middle grade and younger with wonderful graphics and an awesome cast of characters, including a crime fighting heroine trying to take down animal cruelty and a hoard of intellectual Cats. Fun!

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for my gifted copy. I requested this book for my daughter because she is obsessed with cats and she absolutely loved it. We can't wait to read the second book. This book sends a message to kids about protecting our animals.
