Lab Rat: A Reckoning is not just a memoir—it’s a survival artifact.

Told with poetic precision and unapologetic honesty, it chronicles one man’s descent through medical trauma, queer estrangement, and the theft of everything he held sacred—including his beloved cats.

At its core, it is also a love letter: to the body, to the voice, and to a black cat named Sayuri, who became grace in fur.

This is more than memory—it is resistance on the page.  A reckoning with silence.  A resurrection in print.

Adapted into a powerful stage play, Lab Rat confronts what was taken and reclaims what still belongs: truth, identity, and the right to be heard.

Lab Rat: A Reckoning (The Companion Adult Coloring Book)

This is not a “cute” coloring book. It is a quiet tool for people carrying heavy stories.

The Lab Rat: A Reckoning Companion Coloring Book is for survivors, queer readers, and anyone living with trauma or long memory in the body. Each page is meant to be used slowly—by hand—to calm the nervous system and give pain somewhere to go.

The images come from the same world as the memoir and stage play: survival, rupture, witness, and repair. You don’t need to be good at art. You only need hands, color, and breath.

This book is for anyone who needs something gentle when words are too sharp.
