Faux Paws

by Deidre J. Owen, Ronald Linson (Editor), Rachel Nussbaum (Contributor)

Sometimes, life can be taken at face value; other times, there is more than meets the eye. Is your house pet simply an average cat, or is she a witch's familiar eagerly searching for her companion? Was that animal you encountered in the woods just a bear, or was it a mysterious cryptid of ancient lore? Be mindful of how you approach the animals in this collection of tales, because jumping to conclusions may prove to be a faux pas!
