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.

For fans of Grumpy Cat and Cats on Instagram there's a new cat in town—Bailey, No Ordinary Cat—of the Facebook name, is a special cat with a growing fan base, garnering over 2 million views on Ellen's Instagram and videos that have been shared by Good Morning America, ABC News, CBS News, and more. What makes Bailey more addictive than catnip? In addition to his adorable expressions and his hilarious, heartfelt antics, Bailey has a penchant for doing things that are characteristically uncatlike—things like taking bubble baths (and enjoying them), sitting attentively in a chair and being read to (for hours), getting a "pet"-icure, and his unending patience while co-raising his human siblings Abby and Hannah (yes, there is photographic evidence that Bailey helped with potty-training). If you have a cat you know how independent they are. Bailey, No Ordinary Cat celebrates the unique quirky spirit of this unforgettable feline through four-color photographs and captions from the voice of Bailey himself. Cat lovers will be delighted to peek into the life of their favorite celebrity cat with the huge eyes, huge heart, and huge personality—and an ever-growing following.
