Find the character in the household rituals
Describe the moment before breakfast, the preferred window, the acceptable form of affection and the noise that changes everything. Is your cat an enthusiastic host or a distant observer? Do they follow one person from room to room? Give the story the distinctions you would notice if anyone described the wrong cat.
- The place they choose when the house is quiet.
- How they ask for something without words.
- A household rule they seem to enforce.
- A relationship with another pet that has its own pattern.
Match the voice to the cat
A warm memoir can celebrate shared years without forcing every scene to be a joke. A fictional adventure can turn a curious indoor explorer into an unlikely hero. A humorous guide can give an opinionated cat a platform without making them cruel or mean-spirited. The tone should feel like an affectionate interpretation of your companion.
Capture their face clearly
Choose a portrait that shows the eyes, face shape and distinctive coat markings. Window light can work well; avoid flash glare and heavy filters. If a particular marking matters, mention it in the profile as well as showing it in the photo.
You choose among creative cover options before approving the opening. Later edits to story details do not silently replace your selected finished front cover.
A keepsake for the person who knows them best
Paperback and hardcover are planned as English-language 6 × 9 inch editions with at least 200 interior pages. The writing and artwork are AI-assisted and may include invented scenes. Your details and the opening preview help set the character and direction before purchase.
