From the New York Times bestselling author of Cleo comes a humorous and poignant account of a transformative month as a foster mother to a homeless cat named Bono. When Helen Brown finally arrived in New York, full of anticipation for her visit, she was persuaded by a fellow animal lover to foster a shelter cat. Helen had envisioned a gentle and affectionate companion who would blink and doze off frequently. However, what she found at Manhattan's Bideawee shelter was a wide-eyed and unpredictable Persian cat with an edgy haircut and a feisty personality.
Bono, who had lost his home during Hurricane Sandy and had managed to survive a serious infection, required daily medication. As a "special needs" cat, Bono was considered an unlikely candidate for adoption. Nevertheless, as their bond grew stronger, Helen was determined to ensure that Bono would find his forever home. Little did she know that he would profoundly change her life and impart invaluable lessons that she would cherish forever.
Just as Bono deserved a fresh start filled with hope and love, Helen herself was ready for new beginnings. Thus, began a heartwarming and enduring kind of love.
