Smart Cats know what they want. And on the world of Celta, they are VERY smart . . . and magical. The cleverest cats can be Familiar Animal companions, bonded with a person. Each of these SIX NEVER-BEFORE-PUBLISHED Celta Cat stories is told from the cat's point of view. They feature Peaches, the first Top Cat of Celta, two other Fams, and a trio of tales about that scrappy, favorite Fam, Zanth. PEACHES ARRIVES ON CELTA, Plenty of problems for Peaches to fix: challenges to his status; people spreading lies about Peaches' human companion and Peaches himself; Grandma's acting mean...and there's that very real concern that the Ship just might not land safely, fear he must overcome... ZANTH GETS HIS BOY, Zanth's meeting with a noble boy running from evil people changes both their lives in ways Zanth could never imagine. PINKY BECOMES A FAM, Pinky is a smart enough cat to know that there is a difference in being a regular cat and a Familiar Companion Cat, and bonding better with his boy. He's determined to make the leap from cat to Fam, but doesn't realize exactly what that means... ZANTH CLAIMS TREASURE, Yes, the southern estate smells great, even better smelling is the glass orb full of magic that Zanth finds, and will fight to keep... BACCAT CHOOSES HIS PERSON, Life on the streets in the winter isn't what Baccat deserves, and he's determined to find a good person to take care of him. After all, he has so much to offer...but does he really deserve what he gets? ZANTH SAVES THE DAY, A FamCat on a beach just can't sleep with all that irritating hatching and squeaking going on. Zanth finds new friends and defends them against bullies...
