The old adage, "When a student is ready, the teacher appears," doesn't say teachers are limited to the two-legged. In this true story, amid the beautiful backdrop of a small town in New Mexico in 1989, a woman seeks peace, answers, and perhaps redemption. On Thanksgiving morning, a mentor, healer, and teacher arrives at her home in the most unlikely of forms: an ugly, starving, beat-up cat. Thus begins an intimate and uplifting story about the power of Love.
The feral cat's noble presence stimulates healing and conversations among a small cast of characters who form a circle of friends: her older neighbors, Gus and Emma; her Navajo friend, Jake; and the local MD and vet, Doc Parsons. Others join the cast - the Egg Lady and her husband; Carlita, the Mexican girl from down the street; and Barry Mackland and his dog, Ferrari. Together they explore some of life's biggest questions: What is love? How do I stop worrying? Do we still live after we die? How can I let go of the past and stay out of the future? How do I go through loss and grief in a healthy way? What breaks relationships? What heals them? These and other questions allow the reader to join in the explorations of self-awareness and the meaning of life. Over the span of a year, she and her friends experience profound life lessons and personal transformation. As they discover the richness of wisdom in friendship and community, the strange cat leads them on a journey of discovery... and miracles.
