Chicken Soup for the Soul - Me and My Cat with Amy Newmark

From My Mama's Kitchen® Talk Radio

How do cats do it? They brighten our days, act as our therapists, and become our best friends—without saying one word. Let’s explore the remarkable ways cats transform our lives! Join Amy Newmark, Chicken Soup for the Soul publisher, and me on Wednesday, April 17th, at 10 AM CT U.S. We will be discussing that fun Special Human–Animal Bond from their latest release, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Me and My Cat - 101 Tales of Feline Friendship. The stories that cat owners share about their feline friends are remarkable. They’re frequently hilarious, often heroic, and surprisingly human instincts will have cat lovers laughing, tearing up, and nodding their heads in recognition as we dive into these touching, inspiring, and sometimes mindboggling stories about all the ways in which cats enrich our lives, become part of our families, and make us better people. “It’s remarkable how much cats add to our lives,” says Amy Newmark. “Our writers report on how their cats helped them improve their relationships, acted as natural therapists, and showed them how to overcome their own challenges. They learned how to be better humans through the examples of their cats’ loyalty, faith, forgiveness, and resilience.” In keeping with Chicken Soup for the Soul’s support for pet adoption and shelters, the 101 stories chosen for the book from thousands of submissions are inspirational and fun and feature rescued cats, including black cats and senior cats, which are often left behind at shelters. Chicken Soup for the Soul’s mission is to make people think “shelter first” when they’re considering adding a new pet to their families.
