Bad Kitty is in a bad way and his owner is concerned. He's not eating everything in sight, he's not causing his usual amounts of chaos, and he doesn't even have enough energy to harass Puppy. Something must be terribly wrong! A trip to the vet is in order- whether Bad Kitty likes it or not!

Nick Bruel has created another laugh-out-loud tale of the worst kitty on the planet, complete with hilarious illustrations, peppered with facts about owning and caring for a cat, and containing just the right amount of mayhem to keep Bad Kitty's fans enthralled.

Nick Bruel will be at Hicklebee's Wednesday, January 20 at 3:00 (presentation at 3:30).

Bruel is a freelance illustrator and cartoonist residing in bucolic Tarrytown, NY with his lovely wife Carina and their lovely cat Esmerelda. He has an office in New York City. During his down time, he collects PEZ dispensers and grows tomatoes in the backyard.
