Publisher Description
There's no feeling quite like that of getting a second chance and a fresh start. When we adopt a homeless cat—or that cat decides to adopt us—we're not just giving one of earth's most beautiful and inscrutable creatures a chance at a good life, we're giving ourselves the gift of companionship, solace, and love. And plenty of laughter too!
This heartwarming collection includes more than thirty true, contemporary stories told by a variety of writers, including Melody Carlson, Lauraine Snelling, and Kristin Billerbeck. Each feel-good story involves cat rescue, some in a typical way and others in surprising—even miraculous—ways. Sometimes the question becomes: Really, who rescued whom?
A thoughtful gift for the cat lover in your life, Second-Chance Cats is the purrfect companion for cozy nights, lazy weekends, and any time you need a pick-me-up.
