Orangey and Ricky

Country Cat, City Cat

The illustrated tale of two kitties: Ricky, a fancy city cat, and Orangey, a scrappy barn cat. Though they came from very different worlds, their unlikely friendship blossomed into something truly special—a friendship marked by adventure, courage, the joy of finding home, the importance of a good vacation, and, of course, clipped ears!
