It was a magical moment when I found this book: a precious, perfect partner to When You Love A Cat. Just like that book, it's poignant and endearing. And a sob-fest of comfort, understanding, and...what can I say...just plain warm-fuzzy love. I'm so grateful that there are people who love cats like we do, who are also writers and illustrators, who can shape such simple words and lines to express and process our feelings of profound love, gratitude, and loss.
An excerpt:
But the thing about bodies is, they don't last forever. As I got older, you took care of me. And when it was time, we said goodbye. Except that it's not really goodbye.
