A stray cat brings together five strangers over the course of one fateful summer in this heartwarming novel about love, found family, and the power of connection.
Núria, a single-by-choice barista with a little resentment for the “crazy cat lady” label, is a member of The Meow-Yorkers, a group in Brooklyn who takes care of the neighborhood’s stray cats. On her volunteering days, she starts finding Post-it notes left by a secret admirer in an area where her feeds her favorite stray—a black cat named Cat. Like most felines, he is both curious and observant, so of course he knows who the notes are from. Núria, however, is clueless.
Are the notes from Collin, a bestselling author and self-professed hermit with a weakness for good coffee? Are they from Lily, a fresh-out-of-high school Georgia native searching for her long-lost half sister? Are they from Omar, the beloved neighborhood mailman going through an early midlife crisis? Or are they from Bong, the grieving widower who owns Núria’s favorite bodega? 
When Cat suddenly falls ill, these five strangers find themselves bonding together in their desire to care for him, and discover that chance encounters can lead to the meaningful connections they’ve all been searching for.

      Cat is a stray living in a Brooklyn neighborhood, fed daily by N�ria, whose volunteer efforts seem more important to her than her care for her own three felines (referred to as the ingrates) and keeping food stocked for herself. N�ria's morning routine has caught the eye of Collin, a once-successful but now-blocked writer, in whose bushes Cat lives. Bong, the sad, widowed bodega owner, contributes paper plates to N�ria's efforts, and Omar, the local mailman, seems to understand the depths of everyone's issues. Lily arrives from small-town Georgia and charms her way into a cashier's job at the local grocery store, where she keeps track of N�ria, who is her secret half sister. These are Cat's people. Each has their own chapter, as does Cat, whose observations are wise, and because of their connection to him, these five come together and find the meaningful connections and fulfilment missing in their lives. When there is a veterinary crisis, all barriers drop. This is a sweet story that will find fans even among those who aren't cat lovers.
