EBOOK
About
A miracle of a book-a joyous celebration of the unspoken but deeply felt bond between animals and people and, in Roger Caras's words, "a celebration of life in the face of death".
Each day holds the promise of a few new faces, a hundred possibilities, and perhaps one miracle.
In a book that reflects her years of work at New York City's famous Animal Medical Center, Samantha Mooney creates a miracle of her own-the unforgettable story of dedicated professionals who, faced with sometimes incurable illness among the animals they care for, nevertheless find companionships and laughter in that caring. But above all, this is a story of cats: Clancy, a tiger-suited Irish rogue who refuses to be caged; gentle Oliver Cromwell, who summers in Maine and makes friends with his own personal sea gull; and one tiny black cat, Fledermaus, who breaks through Samantha's own wall of frozen grief after her father's death and shows her the rewards, and the risks, of loving again.
