That’s actually penile dentata COMBINED with anal dentata. That’s… impressive, I guess…

Nope, Wolsey showed up in the novel of Human Nature. Joan gives him to the Doctor.

Huh. Not often you see Penile dentata on a sci-fi book cover.

Having only read 1 and a half of the New Adventures, I have only the most basic knowledge of plotlines and characters. Does the silver TARDIS cat end up being the cat the Doctor keeps throughout the series (Wollsley, IIRC)?

Time’s Crucible was my first New Adventure, and I have many of the novels from then on (but not the first few). I liked it as a kind of Grant Morrison-y head trip, though the writing was a bit dry.

Yes, the 6-pilots notion was first explored here, though someone could independently come to that conclusion from the shape of the console.
