Her children&#8217;s books, The Stray Series, are based on real cats that have been rescued from Dubai streets and have found their forever homes with a little fun added in for good measure. Megan got involved helping street cats in Dubai in March of 2020, it is now her passion and something she wants to share with the world through children&#8217;s books. The books highlight themes for children such as kinship, bullying, and following your dreams along with adorable illustrations.<br \/>When Megan isn&#8217;t working on teeth or helping cats, she is in reading or doing puzzles. This is her first adult memoir with her brother, Kevin Murray.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6594fc e-flex e-con-boxed lakit-col-width-auto-no e-container e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c6594fc\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-91b291d image_0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"91b291d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"447\" height=\"582\" src=\"https:\/\/kmmurray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Megan-and-Kevin.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1306\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kmmurray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Megan-and-Kevin.jpg 447w, https:\/\/kmmurray.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Megan-and-Kevin-230x300.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 447px) 100vw, 447px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About the Author KEVIN AND MEGAN MURRAY Megan Murray is an American Dental Hygienist living in Dubai.
