That&#8217;s what I wrote into &#8220;Love at First Purr&#8221; and fans are obviously <em>feeling<\/em> it. I loved writing this story and I\u2019m beyond pleased that readers are enjoying it.<\/p>\n<p>So what&#8217;s going on in the Klepto Cat Mystery factory now?<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4363\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/oliviachair1-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/oliviachair1-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/oliviachair1.jpg 296w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/> Book 46 is with the editor and Bernadette Kazmarski is working on another blockbuster cover. This cover, I venture to say, should tickle your fancy. (When you see it, you\u2019ll know what I mean.)<\/p>\n<p>Since Book 46 is more about fun and frivolity than anything else, I\u2019ve decided to write more sinister type of suspense into Book 47.

So far so good. She\u2019s a sweet bundle of love and energy\u2014oh my. She\u2019s such a bright spot in a difficult time. If any of you are struggling out there to maintain your sanity, if you\u2019re struggling with loneliness, or if you\u2019d just like to enjoy a ray of sunshine during these rather dismal days, consider adopting a beautiful fur-creature. Cats, in particular, were put on this earth for a purr-pose and we\u2019re meant to establish a connection to one or more of them during our lifetime. Do it. It\u2019s good for a homeless cat and it\u2019s good for you.
