A sweet story

Actually a lot of action was packed into a short time frame. It was lovely to get a pdf of the book, as the graphics were nicely done and it was a bonus to see a photo of the cute cats that inspired the tale. It was a heartwarming story for young and old.

Such a lovely story about family, love and pets!

I love how this story combines the love for pets, healing from depression and family. The author clearly knows the power that is within having pets. They have such gifts when it comes to love and helping with mental health. The narrator does a fantastic job as well. I'd recommend this book for sure!

Whispers of Healing!

As a father to two cat-loving daughters, This book by Alison Blaire has become a cherished gem in our collection of bedtime stories. The narrative struck a chord with my girls, as they too share a deep affection for our feline friends. Margaret's exploration of the healing energy of cats became a gateway for us to discuss the comforting presence our cats have had during challenging times. The relatable scenarios, colorful illustrations, and gentle exploration of significant family themes, such as old age and illness, made this book not just a story but a tool for meaningful conversations with my daughters. Rickel Hayes' narration added a layer of magic to the already enchanting tale.
