Overview
From cats with nine lives to cats that save lives— from cats that wreck houses to cats that repair families—from cats that crack us up to cats that act like therapists—you’ll see your own cat with new appreciation for its unique skills and intuition.
With a special emphasis on the benefits and joys of adopting abandoned cats, these stories will make you laugh out loud, nod your head in recognition, and maybe even shed a tear or two. And your purchase will help support the great work of the American Humane Association!
