Shines a light on the extraordinary cats and people making a difference across the country.
– Kristine Seguin, founder of Big House Sanctuary and Rehab

Travel the country — from Newfoundland to the Yukon to British Columbia — to meet over forty Canadian cats that ski the Rockies, paddle-board Pacific waves, ride scooters, sing on albums, intuit illnesses, and even run for elections.

Learn some Canadian cat history along the way. What politician brought the first house cat to Canada? What faithful cat-panion helped save a woman abandoned by crewmates in the Arctic? What is the only cat breed developed in Canada? And why do marmalade cats often have six toes? Stop and visit the best cat cafés in Canada, too.

Be amazed by the smartest, bravest, most delightful felines in this heartwarming collection, including orange cats, hairless cats, fat cats, six-legged cats, and the one and only Nico, pet to Prime Minister Mark Carney.
