She’s puss in books

to save the day time and again: from bringing a boy with autism out of his shell to providing comfort to a runaway child shivering on the platform one night.

“So when tragedy hits the team at Huddersfield, they rely on Felix to pull them together again. But it’s a chance friendship with a commuter that she waits for on the platform every morning that finally gives Felix the recognition she deserves, catapulting her to international stardom.”

Penguin says the book is full of funny and heartwarming stories.

It’s set to be published on February 23 and rumour has it Felix is even preparing for TV appearances to promote the book. EXAMINER readers weren’t impressed with a portrait of Felix the station cat in a dress. As reported in yesterday’s Examiner, Huddersfield artist Rob Martin unveiled his oil portrait of Felix in a dress at the station yesterday. It depicts her as Felix Bronte and is dedicated to the memory of Kenny Everett, the late comedian, radio DJ and television entertainer This is what readers had to say: Couldn’t have just done a cute picture of her napping somewhere? Or stalking a mouse? We’re laughing at it, but for all the wrong reasons. Poor Felix. Must be well embarrassed. It looks like a bad case of painting by numbers gone wrong. Embarrassingly bad. How on earth did anyone think that this was a good idea?
