Hi I'm Rudy! I'm a detective! I solve mysteries. My first mystery was Rudy and the Missing Cat Treat. I'm also a cute cat and a cute detective. I am cute! I'm serious. I also love catnip. I have friends, too: Sam, Arthur, Tané and Jon Shemitz. My cat friends are: Katrin, Maxx, Rudy, Flurry, and Nimbus, but not Marley or Big Boy.

Me, Rudy, the cat and detective, I am brave (not quite so brave -- I did run from a dog by the name of Gracie), so I love being a detective. Cats love me more when I'm a detective, so it's true that I love being a detective. I love cats even if they don't love ME, THE CUTE CAT AND DETECTIVE.

I even once wrote a letter to Katrin. I'll even tell you what it said. It said: "Dear Katrin, I love you. Send this to Maxx except this part and the 'Send this to Maxx', and change the 'Dear Katrin' to 'Dear Maxx'."

I'd sing you a song if I knew one.

Cats Are SO CUTE. Aaannnyyywwwaaayyy, you know that I'm a detective. I even have a computer. I check my mail every day. My favorite game is "Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon". I wish I could go to the moon. My second favorite game is "Curious George Comes Home". I wish I could be that curious.
