Product Description

For Every Cat An Angel celebrates the timeless connection between people and their "forever cats." From the moment a kitten is born, the book tells us, a guardian angel watches over it, loving the kitten no matter which path it chooses in life.

Some cats are adopted into loving families and the angel is happy knowing her cat will always be loved and cared for. But sometimes the angel knows someone very special is waiting for her cat, so she sends the cat through the stars until it arrives at the place it is meant to be - at the home of its forever person, where it will become a forever cat. Once a forever person and a forever cat find each other, nothing can ever separate them.

Filled with colorful illustrations, For Every Cat An Angel will delight cat lovers young and old and bring comfort to anyone who has had to say goodbye to their beloved cat companion.

About the Author
Christine Davis has been an animal lover all her life. In 1995 she decided to transition out of the corporate workplace and follow her heart toward work that would express her love and respect for animals. Her journey led her to a woman of Native American descent who used sound as a method of healing. By learning to listen to the sounds and songs of the natural world, Ms. Davis was able to deepen her understanding and appreciation of animals and the many gifts they bring to us.

It was during this time the author suffered the devastating loss of her beloved dog, Martha. Unable to find a book that understood her feelings of loss and spoke to her heart, Ms. Davis wrote For Every Dog An Angel as a way of acknowledging the special relationship she and Martha had shared.

Shortly thereafter the author and her husband were adopted by Jake, a Border Collie and German Shepherd mix who needed a home and some people to love...and herd. "Where will he sleep?" the animal shelter form asked. "Anywhere he wants to" the author wrote. So Jake took his place on their bed and in their hearts.

It was Jake who discovered the litter of kittens under the deck and invited them in to become part of the family for he, too, had once been homeless. Jake brooded over his feline family, licking the formula off of their faces and nosing them back if they wandered too far. But it was the author whose life was changed forever. She hadn't realized there had been four empty places in her heart that only these little furballs could fill. She hadn't realized how much she needed a feline fairy Godmother. She hadn't realized life could be so much more fun if you looked at the world through the eyes of a kitten.

For Every Cat An Angel was written to welcome Dickens, Pippen, Molly and Star into the Davis household and to thank them for enchanting the author with their cat magic!

Customer Reviews

A GREAT BOOK AFTER LOSING A KITTY!
Our kitten who was 10 months old recently died of an untreatable disease. I have two children (ages 6 and 10) so I was looking for a book to help them. Well this book also helped me. WOW! This book describes how every kitty has a guardian angel and the guardian angel helps it find it's "forever person". But, the day comes when kitty is at the end of their earthly life and then it becomes a "forever cat" and rejoins it's angel. The part I liked most was how the book describes how your "forever cat" wants you to be happy even if it means bringing a new kitty into your life. And the "forever cat" will be happy because you still have so much love to share. This helped because my children were afraid to get another kitty because it might make our "angel kitty" mad. It goes on to describe how the angel takes care of it until the day comes when the "forever person" and "forever cat" meet again across the angel bridge. I know the review says for 6-8 year olds but I think every adult pet owner will find comfort in this book. Blessings be with you!!

For Every Cat an Angel
My beloved cat, Jaggie, was put to sleep 4 days ago, and I cannot tell you the pain and sorrow it leaves me with. This book was reccommended to me by a veterinarian that I work with, and the day Jaggie was put to sleep, I went out and bought 2 copies, and just ordered 2 more for people who helped me throught he process. I am an animal oncology technician, and give chemotherapy to animals with cancer, and I always know that each of my patients may not have as long to live as the average animal. This book will come in handy to give to my patients' owners when the time comes to make that decision, and it will help them not feel as much guilt making that decision. This book has beautiful drawings, and a beautiful text which will make you feel wonderful about the life you gave your "forever friend".

A wonderful book for those who have lost a friend.
After losing my 1 year old cat to FIP, I was having a very difficult time dealing with my grief. My veterinarian gave me this book, and although reading it brought even more tears, it's eloquence in describing the eternal bond between a person and their "forever cat" really does aid in the healing process. It's a simple story, one that is familiar to every cat owner, yet you'll find yourself reading it over and over, and each time you close it you'll feel a little bit better than you did before. Highly recommended for those grieving a feline friend.
