'Quirky and life-enhancing' THE TIMES Biggest Books of the Autumn
_____________________
Against changing seasons in Japan, seven cats weave their way through their owners' lives.
- A needy kitten rescued from the recycling bin teaches a new father how to parent his own human baby
- An elderly cat hatches a plan to pass into the next world as a spirit so that he and his owner may be together for ever
- A colony of wild cats on a holiday island shows a young boy not to stand in nature's way
- A family is perplexed by their cat's devotion to their charismatic but uncaring father
- A woman curses how her cat constantly visits her at night
Bursting with empathy and love, THE GOODBYE CAT explores the unstoppable cycle of life as we see how the steadiness and devotion of a well-loved cat never lets us down.
A huge bestseller in Japan, every page is a joyous celebration of cats and how we cannot resist sharing our lives with them.
'A book for every cat lover. An enchanting insight into the mysterious world of cats and their humans' CELIA HADDON, author of Being Your Cat

READERS ADORE THE GOODBYE CAT

Respectfully, I give it 4.5 ⭐ It's not as perfect as The Travelling Cat Chronicles, but I still enjoyed most of the stories. Perhaps the wholesomeness itself is the one that play an important role here. The privilege of saying goodbye to the beloved one is real and thankfully it is beautifully portrayed. Humans or cats are different creatures even though they may be just the same when they share a bond.
