Randy's Short Stories
Smokey & Bandit

    Smokey is a cat who shares a house with his look-alike brother, Bandit,
    and their human, Josh Rivers.  The cats are content to allow Josh to
    believe he's in charge as long as the food dishes are filled and the litter
    boxes cleaned.  Josh is a Private Investigator in South Florida with a
    tough case to crack—capture a burglar who torches houses after cleaning
    out the valuables.    When their home comes under attack, Smokey knows
    it's up to him to protect them.  He can expect little support from his
    cowardly brother, and Josh is ... well, he's just a human.
