Biography: general; Cats as pets

A Tortoise Shell Cat Named Patches is a collection of true stories about the first cat of author Karon McAninch.

Highly intelligent and playful, Patches performed antics and played games that amazed and surprised Karon-and will amaze and surprise you too! Patches' energy and curiosity were boundless, which she expressed through catching yarn balls in midair, to playing with her tail while swaying in a hammock created by a bedsheet, to chasing a bobbin tied at the end of a string. With Patches everyday items were a new plaything and every day was a new adventure. Cat-loving people of all ages, from young children to adults, will love these bedtime short stories of this adorable, mischievous cat. The vivid, engaging language along with the photographs of Patches throughout the text gives readers a front-row seat to all of the fun and excitement.

Karon McAninch was born in Oak Park, Illinois. As an only child, she grew up in Berwyn, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. During this time, she listened to her mother who told her to find a way to occupy her time when she was alone. As a result, at the age of 14 Karon developed an interest in writing short stories, but never considered publishing until recently. With encouragement from family and friends, Karon moved forward to publish her first book, A Tortoise Shell Cat Named Patches.
