The Real Animals
Sherlock, Kato and Charlie are real animals. The Caswell family adopted them from the SPCA.
Most of the Caswell's pets have been adopted, strays or somehow in need of a home. Vickianne uses the animals' real names unless they are created characters. The real animals' personalities are displayed in the books as well.
Here are the names of the real animals in this story:
* Kitty (Mr. Cat, the dad) * Sweet Pea
* Freckles * Rags
* Potato * Boots
* Charlie * Kato
