About this deal

Their mission, to locate and rescue missing and stolen animals, with a specific focus on Molly sniffing out lost cats. They are a godsend to heartbroken pet owners everywhere.

I found myself feeling sympathetic for someone who hadn't even been harmed in the situation, rather than focusing my concern on Molly, in that moment. I'm not a fan of that! I thought you’d gone forever!” she squealed, flinging her arms around him and smothering him in kisses. “You’ll never know how much I missed you.”

Colin’s passion for writing started as a child in Singapore. When at the age of seven his school essay on the field study of Fire Ants received the award for best story and most improved handwriting. ”I strutted around my school as if I had won the Nobel Prize in Literature as opposed to a hand writing competition” he has said. "It really was a pivotal moment for me, having my work recognised at such a young age had such a big impact, from then on I recorded field notes on all the interesting adventures I had with my brother and read every book I could get my hands on.”

In 2005, Colin formed the United Kingdom Pet Detective Agency (UKPD), and in 2016, Molly joined the team as his partner, and together they solve crimes. Yes, you read that correctly. I’ve discovered that there are many, many dogs missing in Northern Ireland today and I personally feel there’s a major disconnect between dog owners like us who are searching for their lost dog and processes in some of the shelters. Next, the book moved to how Mr. Butcher decided to start his own agency and eventually found and rescued his partner, Molly. Molly and Mr. Butcher's relationship throughout the book is incredibly touching and made me miss my dogs who are home while I'm on vacation. There were many times I wanted to give them a snuggle and smattering of kisses because this book is for any animal lover for sure. Four years previously I’d first set out to find and train a cat-detection dog, and had figured that it would take me just six months. I’d spent hundreds of hours researching canine cognition, traveled thousands of miles to meet the country’s top experts in this field and overcome a great deal of resistance and hostility. So many people have told me that it couldn’t be done and had implied that I was foolish and delusional.'This book shows the process of training a dog to search for cats. She has to be energetic but not too scary. She has to find the cats but not spook them and make them run farther. It is a delicate balance. Molly is the vice president of the club, with Li'l Petey as the president, who are both working on their comic, Squid Kid and Katydid. A breakthrough moment for Molly who finally accepted a cuddle from granny Barbara Nelson, 90, (Image: Emma Nelson)
