What a discovery! A remarkable book has been found -- the journal of a cat. Written between 3,000 B.C. and the present, this "first-feline" account by one Clio records her nine extraordinary lives, and contains information...that could rewrite history. How fascinating to read, in Clio's own words, the story behind her naming of the constellations. How charming to see miniature self-portraits illustrating her ingenious invention of the alphabet. How beguiling to hear her description of making the Mona Lisa (clearly a cat aficionado) smile. And there's so much more!

Book Description
My One-Eyed, Three-Legged Therapist: How My Cat Clio Saved Me is the story of how an adorable, spunky, gray-and-white kitten helped the author regain the courage to face life’s challenges and realize that none of us is truly alone. Born into poverty, losing her dad at age seven, and targeted by bullies, Kathy turned to pets for unconditional love and acceptance. A difficult childhood led to an abusive marriage, but things changed on her fortieth birthday when her staff at the organization where she worked gave her an extraordinary cat named Clio. The runt of the litter, a two-time cancer survivor, and a special needs cat, Clio nevertheless had an incredible will to live full tilt. This intrepid feline knew no fear and displayed unlimited self-confidence. She overcame not one, but two, disabilities. By watching Clio thrive despite what life threw at her, Kathy was able to put her own life in perspective by learning to accept the past, embrace the present, and look forward to the future.

Book Description
Having grown up in poverty without a father and as the subject of bullying, the author at a young age turned to pets (and particularly cats) to provide her with unconditional love and acceptance. Unfortunately, during her youth, she never overcame her low self-esteem and had difficulty believing in God. It took a bad marriage to a controlling and abusive individual, and a birthday gift of one extraordinary cat, Clio, to drive home the early lesson she had learned about pets. Clio was the runt of the litter, survived cancer twice, and had an incredible will to live. She knew no fear (sometimes to her detriment) and was able to overcome not one, but two, major disabilities. This book is funny, touching, and inspirational and should appeal to not only cat and pet lovers, but anyone who has ever overcome a disability or faced serious illness, been bullied, or lost his or her faith.
