The City of Meowtropolis

In this 1930's Noir style story, an anthro cat detective named Dean Whiskers, casts shadows over sharp, inquisitive eyes. This cat is on the prowl for clues in the dimly lit, rain-slicked streets of a city that never sleeps. He lives in a city called Meowtropolis. Whiskers' backstory is as intriguing as his cases. He was an orphan, raised in the back alleys by a clowder of streetwise cats and foxes. He learned the ways of the city from the whiskers up, developing a network of informants and allies among the city's many strays and gangsters. His natural curiosity and cunning made him a natural at solving the unsolvable, and soon, his reputation grew.
