Rosemary Gasson works as a property consultant to support her two felines: Waldo the Chief Inspector, an accident prone, 17lb Maine Coon; and Bronte, a one-part pedigree and three-parts miscellaneous moggie.

Andrew Gasson, her brother, is an optometrist as well as a published author on such diverse subjects as Wilkie Collins and contact lenses. Andrew is like a Dutch uncle to all the world's felines, and feels that all cats should aspire to become members of the Feline Gourmet Society - where they can enjoy the world of fine feline eating.
