As a cat lover, I am glad to see that a cat saved this man from himself. Maybe that cat just recognized another down-and-outer.

He is a Savannah, part African serval. They make yelping-like noises instead of meows!

I ran across this book in the bookstore a while back but looked like such a quick read I didn't want to buy it in hardcover so I took it out at the library. The story is great but the guy is not an author and the book gets very repetitive. I only made it half way through. That said it is heart warming when two "people" in need find something in common and can help each other learn something new.
