The Goodbye Cat

I flera kortare berättelser får vi läsa om hur sju katter förändrar livet för sju personer. En stillsam och värmande bok om livet och varför vi väljer att dela det med katter. [Against changing seasons in Japan, seven cats weave their way through their owners' lives ...] A needy kitten rescued from the recycling bin teaches a new father how to parent his own human baby; a colony of wild cats on a holiday island shows a young boy not to stand in nature's way; a family is perplexed by their cat's devotion to their charismatic but uncaring father; a woman curses how her cat constantly visits her at night; and an elderly cat, Kota, hatches a plan to pass into the next world as a spirit so that he and his owner may be together for ever.
