What experiences can an animal endure? How many lives does a cat have? How did it happen that an unfortunate abandoned kitten made a small library into a meeting place for local residents and a magnet for tourists, and that a provincial American town became famous around the world? Do we really save homeless animals by bringing them into our home, or do these wordless creatures, on the contrary, become our support in overcoming everyday troubles and difficulties? About this and much more in the amazing book by Vicki Myron, who managed to move the hearts of millions of readers in every corner of the planet.
