Very cute collection of short stories about cats and their relationships with and alongside humans. Without the cats, these stories may have been sad and hopeless, but through the lenses of the cats who love them, the characters appear more hopeful and their lives are full of love. 

Read if you like sentimental short stories featuring cats!
