Introduction
by Julia Eccleshare
Puffin Modern Classics series editor
Can you imagine being right inside your cats head? That is exactly where you are in The Diary of a Killer Cat. Once youve read this book, youll be able to see everything from a new point of view. Think how horrible it is to be stuck in a cage waiting for the vet especially with a tasty-looking gerbil sitting nearby. Or to be labelled HANDLE WITH CARE. Or to be accused of a crime you havent even committed. Poor pussycat! But dont let the Killer Cat deceive you. Okay, so a cat can be soft and cuddly and furry, but inside every soft pussycat, theres a cunning little beast.
After Id read The Diary of a Killer Cat, I never saw a cat in quite the same way again. I now realize that a cat knows what you are thinking even if you havent said it. It knows what you hate and what you like about it and, mostly, it just doesnt care! Above all, dont ever think that you are in charge of a cat. For every plan you have, a cat will have one to outsmart you
Anne Fine stands up for cats in this hilarious story of humans, cats, gerbils, dogs and a somewhat unfortunate rabbit

Okay, okay. So hang me. I killed the bird. For pitys sake, Im a cat. Its practically my job to go creeping round the garden after sweet little eensy-weensy birdy-pies that can hardly fly from one hedge to another. So what am I supposed to do when one of the poor feathery little flutterballs just about throws itself into my mouth? I mean, it practically landed on my paws. It could have hurt me.
Okay, okay. So I biffed it. Is that any reason for Ellie to cry in my fur so hard I almost drown, and squeeze me so hard I almost choke?
Oh, Tuffy! she says, all sniffles and red eyes and piles of wet tissues. Oh, Tuffy. How could you do that?
How could I do that? Im a cat. How did I know there was going to be such a giant great fuss, with Ellies mother rushing off to fetch sheets of old newspaper, and Ellies father filling a bucket with soapy water?
Okay, okay. So maybe I shouldnt have dragged it in and left it on the carpet. And maybe the stains wont come out, ever.
So hang me.
2: TUESDAY
I quite enjoyed the little funeral. I dont think they really wanted me to come, but, after all, its just as much my garden as theirs. In fact, I spend a whole lot more time in it than they do. Im the only one in the family who uses it properly.
Not that theyre grateful. You ought to hear them.
That cat is ruining my flower beds. There are hardly any of the petunias left.
Id barely planted the lobelias before it was lying on top of them, squashing them flat.
I do wish it wouldnt dig holes in the anemones.
Moan, moan, moan, moan. I dont know why they bother to keep a cat, since all they ever seem to do is complain.
All except Ellie. She was too busy being soppy about the bird. She put it in a box, and packed it round with cotton wool, and dug a little hole, and then we all stood round it while she said a few words, wishing the bird luck in heaven.
