About Catherine Pickles

As a child her home was filled with dogs cats and every stray broken or rescued animal in the village. She is an experienced foster-carer of lurchers and other sighthounds. Worzel was initially a foster dog but from the second he skidded through the door Catherine knew that he would be her first failed foster. Worzel Wooface was adopted from Hounds First Sighthound Rescue. His mission in life is to eat every shoe his Dad owns. Tolerant of the five cats who live with him his favourite is Gandhi who he considers to be an honorary lurcher. As well as writing books Worzel blogs and writes a regular column for his local newspaper. He is a champion for rescue dogs and considers himself a Rescue Ambassador promoting the joys and challenges of second-hand dogs. He can usually be found upside down on any bed other than his own often with one of his Dad's shoes that he's looking after. And licking. In 2016 Worzel won a Heroes of Dog Fest award.
