Cattitude - Episode 285 Phantoms, Cadillacs & Claws — Crime Solving Through a Cat’s Eyes

Author: Pet Life Radio November 26, 2025 Duration: 27:26
On this episode of Cattitude, Michelle Fern sits down with author G. David Stirling, creator of the wildly imaginative Cat Detective Series, including The Cat That Chased Cadillacs and The Cat That Followed Phantoms. His feline hero, Buck, is a black-cat detective with a secret agency beneath a backyard shed, solving crimes right under the nose of his human — the town’s only detective — who has no idea his cat is the real brains on the case! David shares how his real-life black cat, Panther, inspired the character, the surprising depth of feline intelligence and behavior woven into his mysteries, and why these books celebrate black cats instead of stereotyping them. If you love crime novels, fantasy, cozy mysteries, or simply adore cats with big personalities, this episode is a must-listen.
