Traer Scott is a celebrated animal photographer and the award-winning author of Finding Home and Forever Home. In her first-ever book centered around cats, Scott invites readers on a captivating journey into the lives of courageous rescue cats and kittens, captured in evocative images and remarkable stories. She shared in the introduction that:
“I know dogs. I know dogs so well that sometimes I feel like I’m part dog. But even after making this book, I still don’t know cats. Does anyone really know cats? Perhaps their unknowability is part of their magic. They seem familiar yet feral and ancient. Holding a purring cat in your arms is like cradling a mythical creature, one that has chosen you, if only for now.“
