Connected short stories about people who are struggling with their mental health and visit a clinic. The clinic is hard to find and only staffed by a nurse and a doctor. The doctor listens to their problems and then prescribes a cat for a few weeks to help them. The experiences with the cats are different with each person but it allows them to see solutions to their issues. A feel good book with a hint of magical realism implied.
