About the Series

This book is the third in a series about our cat Boots OMalley. The second book, OMalleys Most Important Day, tells of the cat's visit to the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY. His first book, OMalleys Uninvited Guest, was the book that made him famous. It was a true adventure about an unwanted house guest, a squirrel, who fell down the chimney and almost wrecked the Christmas tree. OMalley saved the day and the tree by trapping Christopher, the squirrel, who was later set free, unharmed.

This book tells the story of the family's trip to Paris, France to promote the first book, OMalleys Uninvited Guest.

About OMalley

My name is OMalleyBoots, the family I adopted when they moved into the military quarters at Ft. Totten, New York, that had been my family's ancestral home for many generations. This is the story of our trip to France to promote my book.

The Trip to France

Everything was great. I didn't mind the thought of a long trip in a plane. But then my life changed forever. A DOG CAME TO LIVE IN MY HOUSE. The Shih Tzu puppy was a gift to the Mother of the family, who was the author of my books.

Everyone was thrilled about the new addition—except for me. The little fur ball would not leave me alone. She jumped on everything and constantly squeaked a little yellow duck toy that was her favorite.

At first I thought she was a total nuisance, but later her bravery saved my life, and I learned to appreciate all newcomers to the family. One cannot judge one's bravery by their size.
