Overview

After suffering an unimaginable loss, a beautiful calico cat searches for a new home as she struggles to leave her painful memories behind. In a new location-a dilapidated barn at the edge of a prairie village-she finds shelter and an unexpected friendship with a petite, grey-haired human. Left homeless after his human could no longer care for him, a lonely grey housecat seeks sanctuary in the barn during a bitter autumn storm. The next morning, he is asked a question that will change the course of his life: ""Are you planning to stay?"" So begin the adventures of Fluff and Clarence and the successive generations of kittens that join them in learning about the wonders-and dangers-of barn life, the importance of finding home and family, and the joy that can be found again after loss. The prequel to No Ordinary Cats and based on the real cats from the author's childhood, No Ordinary Barn Cats is a humorous, touching, and genuine tale of rural prairie life, the lives of these special animals, and the undeniable impact they have on us-and each other.
