BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Shelter Medicine
Principles of Health and Welfare in a Multi-animal Environment
by Rachel Dean (Editor), Margaret Roberts (Editor), Jenny Stavisky (Editor)
This brand new manual provides a practical guide on how to deal with various clinical situations that arise when working with cats and dogs in a shelter environment. The first part of the manual describes the principles of shelter medicine and population health.
Librarian Kathleen Paulson and her inquisitive cats find themselves in a jam when a musician turns up dead, in the newest instalment of this New York Times bestselling series.
It's summer in Mayville Heights, and Kathleen Paulson and her detective boyfriend, Marcus, are eager to attend the closing concert of the local music festival. The concert is a success, but then one of the band members is discovered dead shortly after it. At first it's assumed the death is a robbery gone wrong, but Kathleen suspects foul play-and she's certain that she, along with her trusty side-cats, Owen and Hercules, can help solve the murder.
Before his death, Kathleen had noticed the victim in the library researching his genealogy, and when she and Marcus take a closer look at the man's family tree, they begin to think a previous death of one of his relatives now seems suspicious. The more Kathleen thinks about it, the more this murder feels like it could be an encore performance. Kathleen and her cats will need to act fast and be very careful if they want to stay off of a killer's hit list.

THE ADVENTURES OF SIR GOLBIN, THE FELINE KNIGHT
by Barbara E Moss, Emily Cornell du Houx (Illustrator)
For all cat lovers. Goblin is not an ordinary cat. He appears to be like most cats; he can't talk human-speak, he doesn't wear boots or carry a sword or walk on his hind legs, and he would rather scratch up furniture than wear a showy hat or people clothes, but he does possess something unique: a knack for finding adventure.
by Barbara E Moss, Emily Cornell du Houx (Illustrator)
Somehow Goblin manages to get himself knighted, save lives, solve crimes, reveal a secret plot, and change the destiny of a struggling medieval village. Join this unusual, twenty-pound tomcat in seven tales of adventure and mystery as he becomes the centre of extraordinary events.
Experience the sights, sounds, and realities of Medieval Europe through true-to-life descriptions of knights, castles, town life, religion, and the hardships and successes of daily life in the Middle Ages. Meet Goblin and friends, and be prepared for a story that will make you want to do as the cats do and say "Mrrt!" (Illustrated by hand.)

HAVEN
A Small Cat's Big Adventure
by Megan Wagner Lloyd
When her cherished Ma Millie falls ill, a timid housecat ventures into the wild to seek help in this adventure about love, loss, and finding the truest version of ourselves.
A warm, cosy lap. The toasty smell of baking bread. Tasty food served in a bright-blue bowl. These make Haven’s life as an indoor pet heaven. All thanks to her beloved human and rescuer, Ma Millie. But when Ma Millie becomes too sick to care for her, the cat’s cosy life is turned upside down, and Haven decides she must seek out another human for help. Anything for Ma Millie! Her vow pulls her out of her safe nest into the shadowy forest and down unfamiliar and dangerous roads.

But Haven finds herself pitted against creatures far wilder than she ever could be, testing her strength and spirit to their limits.

Can she stand up against the fierce predator that is tracking her every move?
