- A book featuring cats as the main characters - cats who actually act like cats. I think the only one like that I've seen is "Stray" by A. N. Wilson. I just want someone to do for cats what "Watership Down" did for rabbits. E.g. Don't make them live in large groups - they're small and largely solitary (but not asocial) predators.
- A book featuring meerkats. Seriously, they're a gift. They're cute, they live in large social groups, and as far as I know there are no meerkat novels. Do some research (including but not limited to watching Meerkat Manor) and write something along those lines.
What bothers me about most animal books featuring cats is that they almost never have the cats being all that catlike. I don't mind so much if the book's got massive fantasy elements, like "The Wild Road", but surely part of the appeal of writing xenofiction is that you get into the head of the animal, rather than write primitive humans with cute pointy ears who eat mice.
