It’s never too late to get a cat.
And if you receive a cat as an inheritance — plus from a stepmother — then the plot can unfold in different ways.
Lisa unexpectedly, as if in a fairy tale, finds herself owning a cat. It’s either a Cinderella story or a story about a Cat in Boots. But from that very moment, she learns a lot about herself, about her stepmother, and about her abilities — which are not just luck or “it happened to you,” but a witch’s gift.
As for the cat... Cats bring happiness, even if their owners resist it. Lisa has no choice but to become a witch and find happiness. Because the Marquis decided he would take care of her.
