Cat Wrangling Made Easy: Maintaining Peace & Sanity in Your Multicat Home

Chandra was having a bad day anyway, but then that cat… “Starts with a galactic Ma Bell and the equivalent of the Wichita Lineman on the run from thugs demanding an object Chandra’s never even heard of, then throw in space pirates who steal party supplies, a cat who’s even more a law unto himself than most felines, and oddball planets where the inhabitants have deified Fifties TV sitcom characters or the drunks in the gutter at night are lawyers in court by day. It all adds to make All the Marbles a highly entertaining ride.” – Lee Killough, author of Wilding Nights “If you’ve missed Douglas Adams, you’ll laugh with relief when you read All the Marbles.” – Selina Rosen, author of Queen of Denial and Recycled “Rainbolt taps into the heart of science fiction; all that can be imagined is possible. All the Marbles is fast-paced, outrageous, and of a cosmic scale. Rainbolt will take you on a trip far from home, a trip well worth taking.” – Gary Moreau, author of Almost Human “Crossing screwball comedy with space opera, Dusty Rainbolt’s All The Marbles is a fast, funny take on far-future shenanigans and some eternal verities, like corporate monopolies and human idiocy. Readers will love this wild space chase after a mysteriously valuable object through galaxies far, far away with spunky heroine Chandra Solomon, a large cast of oddballs along for the ride, and Ivan the topdog cat.” – Carole Nelson Douglas, author of Cat in a Neon Nightmare

Some cats won’t let a little thing like death separate them from their humans Cat lovers know their amazing creatures possess mystical powers that reach beyond what we can see and touch, But can cats extend a paw from beyond the grave? Award-winning Ghost Cats is an original collection of heartwarming, and sometimes heart-stopping, accounts of cats who connected with their loved ones for a final time—ghost encounters of the feline kind. From the chilling “Demon Cat of the Nation’s Capitol” to the comical “Phantom Litter Box” to the reassuring “Grungy’s Greeting,” there are feline phantasms for everyone. And if you believe you have heard, seen or felt your very own departed kitty, author Dusty Rainbolt offers reasons why your best forever friend breeched that last, tenuous veil to reach you again. "Decades of tending rescue and foster cats and kittens make Dusty Rainbolt the cat companion's go-to expert on feline health, happiness, and behavior. And that includes stunning examples of cats' extra-sensory sensitivity we all glimpse and often too easily dismiss. Ghost Cats will make you wonder if any of our cats are ever really 'lost' to us." ~ Carole Nelson Douglas, author of the Midnight Louie Feline PI Mysteries
