Did We Just Elect a Cat?

What happens when a joke candidate becomes the city's only hope?

In the dysfunctional city of New Cattington, politics is as corrupt as it is ineffective. Lucy Barnes, a jaded political journalist, has seen enough empty promises and backroom deals to last nine lifetimes. When she and her eccentric friend Felix O'Malley jokingly suggest running Mittens—the popular tabby from their local cat cafe—for mayor, they expect nothing more than a few laughs and maybe some social media attention.

What they don't expect is for people to take them seriously.

As Mittens' campaign gains unexpected momentum, Lucy and Felix find themselves at the centre of a political revolution. Armed with nothing but cat puns, an army of enthusiastic volunteers, and a candidate whose platform consists mainly of napping in sunbeams and looking judgmental, they set out to challenge the establishment.

But when Mittens begins accidentally solving the city's long-standing problems simply by showing up for photo ops, voters start to wonder: could a cat actually be a better mayor than the corrupt human alternatives?

Did We Just Elect a Cat? is a sharp-witted, laugh-out-loud satire that scratches beneath the surface of modern politics. With its cast of unforgettable characters—from the no-nonsense Lucy and the flamboyant Felix to the surprisingly effective feline candidate himself—this novel takes readers on a hilarious journey through campaign catastrophes, media frenzy, and the unexpected power of thinking outside the litter box.

This novella is a timely, irreverent take on political disillusionment and the hunger for authentic change. It reminds us that sometimes the most absurd ideas are exactly what we need to shake up the status quo.
