Laura Palka is the author of the book Hisstopher and Other Unique Cat Names, released in January 2025. She was inspired to write it because of her great love not only for cats, but for all things quirky and whimsical.
After many years spent as a cat and kitten foster, Laura found that she had collected a great number of potential names for future foster kitties that were going unused. She knew she wasn’t alone in this. In fact, many cat fosters had a list of names they wished to use one day as well. And from this seed was born the idea of a book.
Laura has also spent time volunteering for local animal rescues in fundraising, social media posting and assisting in other administrative functions. She has also written blog posts, cat-centric articles and other content in her spare time. She also teaches beginner crochet lessons as she is a self-taught crocheter herself.
Laura Palka lives in Northeast Ohio with her feline companions and constant inspirations Helmet and Cowbert Pitter-Patter.
