Book Launch: The Cats of Australia

Join Jodie Stewart, Australia’s first cat historian, for an engaging exploration into how our feline friends have influenced our nation! 🐱✨

This delightful book, The Cats of Australia, reveals the complex and affectionate relationship we have had with cats since the arrival of the First Fleet. 🛳️💖

From being adored and celebrated to being misunderstood and vilified, cats have shared our lives in many roles:

• 🐾 Companions on farms and in shearing sheds
• 🚢 Sailors on naval and merchant ships
• 🏥 Comforters in World War I hospices
• 🧺 Ice cream buddies at the beach
• 👩‍🏭 Comrades on the picket lines

Discover how these enigmatic creatures have inspired artists and writers, taught us compassion, and sparked robust debates about their effects on our wildlife. 🎨✍️ Their presence in our lives has crafted a rich tapestry of stories, battles, and affection, leaving an indelible paw print on history.

Don’t miss this funny, fascinating, and heartfelt journey through the world of cats in Australia! 🐈❤️
