THE STORY

About the book

This is a non-fiction account about how one feral female cat came into our lives, and changed it.

My husband (the cat whisperer), took pity on her one summer day, and fed her some table scraps, against my warnings that it might be a female. Of course, feeling that was an invitation, she stayed, expecting to be fed... And then dropped her litter of kittens in the hollow of a tree in our yard.

This is how the kitty drama began. This is her, and her kitten's story, and how we dealt with the joy of watching their antics, the pain of loss, and their love/caring for one another.
