Yup. I"M sure Ron Hill can get the exact quotes out for you if you like :)

But Rocket's Tail is inspired by Kate's cat. Rocket. 

I'm utterly completely serious (it *is* april 1, it occurs to me),
and anyone who knows that kate has cats and that they are a big part of
her life, will not question it anyway:)
