    About this ebook

    Who'd imagine caring for pets is dangerous?

    Sierra lives on the planet Raun where she takes care of a family's pets. As an Earth human on Raun, she wears googles every day to protect her eyes from the local sun. Much is different on Raun, some a lot more dangerous than on Earth.

    Her charges, the Raun version of cats (similar but also not), can make a lot of trouble for her. And why wouldn't cats do that?

    A science fiction short story from Felicia Fredlund, author of the Sorceress Islands series.
