Scrawny Cat


This story of an abandoned and hungry orange and white cat will pull on your heart strings. Every place the cat goes, people chase him away with the words "Get Out of Here!" One day he is chased by a dog down to the wharf and onto a moored dinghy. Almost immediately, a storm blows in, and the dinghy's mooring rope breaks. The dinghy and cat are awash in a storm. Finally, when the storm subsides, they wash ashore near a cottage where a woman lives alone. Together, these two lonely souls become a new happy family. Written by Phyllis Root, illustrated by Alison Friend, this heart-warming tale will be enjoyed by animal lovers of all ages.
