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.
