Quote - A detective series with cats in the lead are authored by  Lilian Jackson Braun, Shirley Rousseau Murphy, and others.  One funny aside is that mysteries featuring cats are sometimes called "cat cozies."  For the few of you who don't know, cozie mysteries are Agatha Christie type where murder is off stage, and the focus is on the puzzle. 

Ah... do you still class a murder as "off stage" if it happened earlier but on a stage and the body tips over into a birthday cake below - all on a stage/in a theatre that's been converted to a pub?

Lol!
