Hi everyone,
Today we would like to introduce you to the story of Bruce the Cat and the new children’s book about him by Kathryn Van Beek.
She fed him around the clock and named him after that other famous orphan, Bruce Wayne.
The tiny kitten’s story went viral; he now has over 30,000 Facebook fans from all over the world who hang on his every photo and exploit.
Kathryn has now written and illustrated a children’s picture book Bruce Finds a Home. A Kickstarter crowd-funding campaign kicked off on Wednesday 24 May.
The Kickstarter campaign will allow people to pre-order copies of the book. There’s a range of rewards for those who pledge, including custom illustrations and even Bruce’s paw print! People can also choose to donate copies to The Animal Rescue Network, a charitable trust dedicated to helping stray and abandoned cats and kittens.
