K.C. (Kitty Cat) is a barn cat and has lived in the barn for two years, and for two years he has pretended that the scarecrow is his family. One day K.C. decides that he wants to have a real family.

K.C. wants a real home!

K.C. is a very friendly cat. He likes the customers who come to Grandma’s barn to buy apples, he likes Matt, he likes the two dogs, he likes Grandma, and he especially likes Nana.

Matt understands that K.C. wants a real family and tries to help him find one. Both of them know that Nana would be the right person for K.C., but Nana does not want a cat in her house. “A cat is too much trouble,” she says repeatedly.

Matt tries to take K.C. up to Grandma’s house, but Grandma’s cat, Ginger, is very unfriendly to K.C. She does NOT want another cat in her house. Luckily, Nana finally realizes that K.C. is the perfect cat for her and all ends well.

Nana Gets a Cat is the second of a series of stories about life on an apple ranch.
