Ah, Werecat, whose work never fails to find that unexpected angle, most often associated with the animals of Middle-earth, or their main Istari proponent, Radagast. Werecat does a great job of showing us a Middle-earth we would not otherwise see, or which we see only in moment in Tolkien's writing--as when the fox passes the four hobbits on the road, and thinks how strange it is to see hobbits sleeping outside. Like Tolkien, Werecat depicts the fauna of Arda with great dignity, and her animal characters act from motives both like and unlike our own, but which always feel absolutely proper to them. She is also not afraid to do a little cross-fandom importing to creating a menagerie that will no doubt prove interesting. But even when she isn't writing animals, Werecat's human, elven, and dwarven (and wizardly and orcish, even) characters are always worth reading. She again privileges those perspectives given less attention in the books, or uses them to open up the more major characters. If you're looking for work that's a bit off the beaten path, or if you like side views or animal narrators, Werecat is the author to look to. I have never yet found a story of hers that I have not enjoyed.

Werecat never fails to please, whether it be a drabble or a long story. Her work always holds the reader's attention and is descriptive and skilfully written.

Werecat really has a knack for writing less popular characters and races. And her treatments of them would feel fresh even if hundres wrote about dwarves, orcs, and her other subjects the way they do about elves or Gondorians. She sees the world toward a very earthy point of view, and it makes for a unique vantage-point.
