    About this ebook

    I always wanted to create a character in my Poker Boy universe who dealt with cats. Kris and I deciding to do a series of twelve cat anthologies gave me the perfect chance.

    And people love the anthology series, The Year of the Cat. Twelve volumes with 100 cat stories.

    Superhero Pakhet Jones deals with all things cats. Her job and she loves it.

    And in this story, Pakhet helps find a cat who vanished into space and time with the help of Poker Boy and others.

      Isuck at finding lost cats.

      Sure, I’m a superhero in the cat world, can hear cats’ thoughts when they direct them at me, and I can turn into a leopard if I want, although in Las Vegas, I have to admit that power hasn’t come in handy for a few decades.

      But at finding lost cats I am no better than anyone else. It’s not as if cats have a tracking system built into them. Chipping them and having a vet or someone at a shelter find them often works a ton better than calling me.

      But today, standing in my robe in my condo overlooking Las Vegas, sipping my morning coffee, I got the call, this
