"Fun, fanciful, and even informative." —People The first comprehensive history of felines—from the laps of pagan gods to present-day status as meme stars—as revealed by a very learned tabby with a knack for hunting down facts Since the dawn of civilization, felines have prowled alongside mankind as they expanded their territory and spread the myth of human greatness. And today, cats are peddled on social media as silly creatures here to amuse humans with their antics. But this is an absurd, self-centered fantasy. The true history of felines is one of heroism, love, tragedy, sacrifice, and gravitas. Not entirely convinced? Well, get ready, because Baba the Cat is here to set the record straight. Spanning almost every continent and thousands—yes, thousands—of years, Baba’s complex story of feline survival presents readers with a diverse cast of cats long forgotten: from her prehistoric feline ancestors and the ancient Egyptian cat goddess Bastet to the daring mariners at the height of oceanic discovery, key intellectuals in the Enlightenment period, revered heroes from World Wars I and II, and the infamous American tabbies. Baba, a talented model in addition to a scholar, goes beyond surface-level scratches, pairing her freshly unearthed research with a series of stunning costume portraits to bring history to life. A paws-on journey through the feline hall of fame, with in-depth research and four-legged testaments that will make you rethink who defines history, A Cat’s Tale is a one-of-a-kind chronicle that introduces readers to the illustrious ancestors of their closest companions and shows, once and for all, that cats know exactly what they’re doing.

The spacefaring Barque Cats are valued members of every vessel’s crew, thanks to their special bond with humans. Then Pshaw-Ra, a mysterious cat with highly advanced knowledge, gives the felines the power of telepathy. When panic over a virulent plague drives the government to exterminate animals, Pshaw-Ra guides the cats and humans of the starship Ranzo to safety on his home planet, Mau. But Pshaw-Ra has a hidden agenda. His ultimate goal? Mate the Barque Cats with their godlike counterparts who rule on Mau and create a superior race to conquer the universe. His plans, however, may be doomed by his daughters’ battle royal to become queen, by a suspicious Barque Cat with an equally curious human friend—and by something stirring deep beneath the city with a hunger to devour all life . . . and an undying hatred for cats.

"All books should have at least one talking cat in them." My friend Susan Douglas believed all books should have at least one talking cat in them. She also believed in my writing ability long before I believed in it myself. After she lost her battle with cancer, I was inspired to write From Where I am Sitting, A Collection of Cat Tales to honour her memory. I developed a plan based on this quote to write a whole book from the point of view of the different cats in my life. I also wrote two chapters about Superhero Susan's cats. This is meant to be a funny, heartwarming read. The tales within may or may not completely reflect the whole truth. I have taken liberties and embellished upon some really fantastic cat tales from the points of view of the different cats that have brought their voices together to help me to write them. Each cat has its own purr-sonality, (see what I did there?) and the trick will be to let them all shine, in their own unique ways. I aspired to write in their different voices, to make it authentic, at least in terms of a fictional, humorous memoir, narrated by various cats. You will read the words of Simba, the cat who was continually amazed by everything around him. Rascal was the sook of the house, a cool cat with a lot of charisma. Mistletoe wrapped Simba, Rascal, my husband and I around her little paw. Lucy was a quirky queen in our house. Dude, well, there is a lot I could share about him, he had a fan club and loved beer for starters. There are stories told by other cats sprinkling their tales around the five pictured on the left. This group of five cats lived legendary lives, and they can't wait for you to read about their adventures!
