We’ve written two storybooks — one for a pet who’s with you, one to remember a pet who’s gone. We make personalised dog books and personalised cat books, and the same book works as one of our personalised pet gifts when you are buying for someone else.

Both books available for a dog — one for a dog who is here, one to remember. Memorial book available for a cat today, drawn and reviewed on a finished cat book. The book for a cat who is still here is not ready yet — that one is a waiting list.

The story is ours. The pet in it is unmistakably yours.

You don't write the plot and you don't need to fill in a long form. Tell us their name, their colouring and markings, and add a few photos — then every page is illustrated as them: their build, their coat, their collar. It becomes a book that can be held, and read aloud, long after the day it arrives.

A book about your pet

For the one currently asleep across your feet — illustrated as them, page after page, with their name on the cover. Keep it, or give it: the dedication page is yours to write.

A book to remember them

For a pet who is gone. A gentler story, written so it can be read aloud to a child — or quietly, on the harder evenings — with your pet illustrated on every page.
