Farewell to the Cat

Even before Satoru Miyasaki’s life was graced by a cat with the “fortunate” name Nana, his first pet was Hachi. Abandoned to fend for himself and unappealing to passersby because of his crooked little tail, the kitten found a new home in the Miyasaki family. Of course, for that Satoru had to pull off a real adventure—raising a fuss with his parents, with his best friend’s parents, and really with the entire neighborhood… “Farewell to the Cat” is seven stories steeped in subtle psychology, gentle sadness, and truly feline wisdom. On the pages of the book, readers will meet both beloved characters from “The Chronicles of Wandering Cat” and new fluffy heroes—sometimes unbearable and enough to drive you up the wall, yet always impossibly charming.
