Reading this book was a profound emotional experience for me. Since I read the book, I have been circulating my own copy on loan, and I have ordered a copy to pass along to a friend who is devoted to rescuing cats. She and her group of volunteers have done a great deal of good, but none has expressed better than Gwen Cooper the miracle that the rescue of a cat with special needs can bring to a human life. When I read Cooper's account of her personal 9/11 experience in Lower Manhattan, I had to skip to the end of the book to be sure that Homer did not perish so that I was able to keep reading. Not only is Cooper an excellent writer, but also a person who understands completely what sharing one's life with an animal can provide.
