This fiction book shares the hilarious, yet inspirational story, of one young feline who, in the face of powerful obstacles, discovers his own, often ferocious, resolve.

Leo, a Furbearer, didnt have a privileged upbringing, but hes always been cunning and strong. Though this tabby came from humble beginnings, hes found a plush home with Eunice and her family of E-Yeows, the creatures who walk around on two paws and have fur only on the tops of their heads.

Then, one day, through a near-fatal accident, Leo gains an aptitude that borders on the supernatural. But, his powers of understanding and self-expression are severely tested when he is forced to make it in a wolfer-eat-wolfer world. Hardened and battle-scarred, he walks a fine line between being tough and respected by his peers and being cruel and hated by his enemies.

One Tough Cat shares the story of Leos hilarious journey as he finds love and harmony in unexpected places and realizes that to be happy, a tomcat doesnt necessarily have to leave home.

Melanie Moye lives with her favorite feline in Milledgeville, Georgia, where she taught English at both Georgia College and State University and Georgia Military College. Moye also taught Spanish at Brentwood High School in Sandersville.
