Mog (Judith Kerr)

Mog is a fictional character in a series of children's books written by Judith Kerr.

Other regularly occurring characters include Mr and Mrs Thomas (Mog's owners) and their two children Nicky and Debbie.

[4][5] In Mog's Christmas Calamity Mog accidentally starts a fire in her home after having a bad dream, but is able to alert the fire brigade (as she had called 999 when scrabbling across a phone); she is hailed a hero for saving her owners, and (after her owners' neighbours pool their resources to undo the damage she had done, in reference to Sainsbury's "Christmas is for sharing" tagline) is later given an egg as a treat.

A special plush Mog and book version of the story were sold exclusively through Sainsbury's, with all profits being donated to Save the Children's child literacy work.

"Mog" is a short form of moggy, a word for a cat that is not a specific breed.
