I did a book of fishing cartoons last year and have also drawn a couple of books featuring cats. The idea came to me to try putting the two together. As cats love fish and images of my cats pawing at the fish in pond came back to me, I thought why not have an entire book of cats fishing? I thought there might be some fun possibilities for new gags as well as modifying previous ones.
In the two pictures in this post the cats have been anthropomorphized, I'm not sure at the moment whether to stay with this format or to have them on their usual four legs, or even to have a mixture of the two.
