Cheryl Kwasigroch writes based on personal experience, and with a deep understanding of the feline mind, as well as the knowledge that a cat is a very special animal, whose health and medical needs are quite different from those of other pets.

What does it involve to do rescue work with cats or just be a caring cat adopter? In these 19 short yet heartwarming stories, different cats as well as the people in their lives struggle to understand one another.

Many people would like to foster but don’t understand the commitment it involves. It’s not often simply a matter of playing with a cute kitten.
