Book excerpt: "The little cat Deric Longden saw sitting forlornly on an upturned bucket belonged to the neighbours, but somehow when it began to rain it seemed only natural to bring him inside. Once there he slipped so easily into Deric and Aileen's lives that there was an unspoken agreement that he had found his real home. Little did he know that he had entered the Longden world, in which the unexpected (almost) always happens. . . Aileen being Aileen, it was probably inevitable that sooner or later the kitten would be trapped in the refrigerator. And Deric being Deric, the obvious way to thaw him back to life was to make a little coat for him out of a shrunken thermal vest. Thus the cat who came in from the cold got his name - Thermal - and joined the wonderful cast of characters in the ongoing Longden saga."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Deric Longden saw Thermal the kitten sitting forlorn on a bucket in the rain it seemed only right to take him in. Soon Thermal had captured the hearts of Deric and his wife Aileen and they couldn't imagine life without him.It seemed only right that Thermal's finicky eating habits should be indulged, and his strange and unstinting passions for a fax machine and a withered sultana adhered to and Deric himself wondered what he did before his comprehensive and often philosophical conversations with Thermal became such a valuable and important part of his day. Told in Deric's inimitable style, this is the charming story of how a little white cat wove his spell on a self-confessed dog lover and how the Longden's family of furry felines grew and grew...

Book excerpt: A cat charms its way into a curmudgeon's heart one hilarious holiday season in this "extraordinary" bestselling Christmas classic (Parade), the perfect gift for the animal lover in your life. 'Twas the night before Christmas when a bedraggled white feline entered the heart -- and home -- of Cleveland Amory. To say it is a friendly takeover is an understatement. For the cat who came for Christmas is clearly of the Independent Type, and Cleveland Amory, cranky or not, is a pushover where animals are concerned. Toe to toe they stand -- Amory at six feet three, the cat at six inches -- and eyeball to eyeball with each other on every issue: whether or not to come when called; to recognize one's name; to take a trip, a pill, a bath, or a walk on a leash; to be civil to New People; or even in an age when Thin Is In, why anyone in his right mind would want to be the Last Fat Cat. We will not spoil The Cat Who Came For Christmas by telling you who blinks first. Suffice it to say that in this hilarious battle, nine times out of ten, it is not the cat.

Book excerpt: Tucked in the cold Colorado mountains lies the remote village of Gray Birch, a place where outsiders are frowned upon. In this village lives a cat named Bijou. But she’s no ordinary house cat; her ancestors were mousers on Viking longships, and their blood runs through her veins. Since her battle skills are hardly needed in this modern age, however, she spends her energies running the Fox Burrow Pet Inn with her human, Spencer, and her assistant, Skunk, a mentally negligible Pomeranian. Together, the happy trio has created a safe haven for their four-legged guests. But when Eddy Line, a handsome baker from California, comes to the inn—along with his piglet and pit bull puppy—everything changes. Spencer falls for Eddy, Bijou is unhappy with the sudden changes to her clan, and the townspeople are anything but welcoming; in fact, threats are made against Eddy when he buys the town’s historic firehouse in order to open a bakery. Then a shocking murder/dognapping occurs on the night of the bakery’s grand opening, and Bijou finds herself thrust into a tangled mystery. To solve it, she will have to summon her inner Viking—and fight tooth and claw for her new clan.

Book excerpt: The cat who came in from the cold... He was bone thin, scruffy, and feverish when he crawled out from under a wagonful of pumpkins and laid his head on Bob Huxley's foot. Sally Huxley fed him scrambled eggs, he purred weakly, and they all accepted the inevitable. They called him Pip and nursed him back to health, while consenting to the rules he gently established for their relationship--no barn living, no cut-rate cat food, no benign neglect. Pip required the best of everything, especially love. But even love couldn't save Pip from petty feline problems: nasty pills, the pushy tomcat next door, a puppy rival, irksome car trips, inedible Bucks County wildlife, and the sudden perils of woods and road. Anyone who has ever loved a cat will lap up this heartwarming true story of the little being who got a second chance at life and made the most of it...even as he turned his human friends' notions about themselves and the world upside down.

Book excerpt: The Old Man and The Cat is a story of how Nils Uddenberg, retired Professor of Psychology became a beloved cat-owner even though he had never wanted a pet of any kind. One winter morning the author discovered a cat—whom he would later find was homeless—sitting outside his bedroom window, staring at him with big yellow eyes. Slowly but surely the cat worked itself into his life. This award-winning writer who has a background in psychology could not stop himself from going deeper into the cat's inner life. Does she have a sense of humor? Is it possible to attach human feelings to her? And the trickiest question of all: Is our little cat actually interested in our attachment to her? With humor and self-awareness, Nils describes how his existence changed after the cat moved into his house. The feelings she stirs up are a surprise to him and he quickly finds himself falling in love with this speckled grey-brown little lady.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the story of Milton Pillsbury: The Cat Who Came In From The Cold. The sole survivor of a litter of nine who were thrown outside on their farm as soon as their mother weened them. Tossed out by Old Man Colton Pillsbury to fend for themselves and clear his barns of mice and birds. Not that the old man didn't have any compassion; he'd feed them something on his porch most days. At least those that survived the windy and bitter cold nights on the farm. But when Old Pillsbury died, his son Tanner and wife Grace adopted the 'war torn' sole survivor, Milton Pillsbury. While there, they chanced upon a descendent; his great niece Alice, who was pregnant. Tanner and Grace Pillsbury took Milton and their daughter Kim, unable to have children of her own, and her husband Grady agreed to adopt the expectant Alice. Several months later, Kim and Grady Castro arrange a trip to their parents, taking along their Alice and her small litter of kittens. During the visit, Milton recounts to his tiny brood of descendants many 'war' stories about life as a barn cat. Also, giving them useful and sage advice to prepare them for their futures. On the backdrop of Milton's 'coming out of the cold, ' Kim Grady's inability to get pregnant herself, and Alice's fear for the future of her small brood, are all their hopes and dreams. All is not bleak, however. Because there may very well be some winter magic in their visit that brings joy to all participants; cats and people both.
