Book Description
Every Cat Has A Story is an exploration of the intimacy that exists between felines and their owners. Submitted from writers throughout the world, these stories touch on the synchronicity of Universal intervention which unites a cat with their person. As you enjoy these stories, possibly a new perspective of your own cat's special qualities may become evident. Your feline's life has not gone unnoticed, for you have been a living testament to the delight and enchantment they have brought into your family. Every cat does indeed have a story, a moment and a legacy that touches their owner's world in a significant manner. A sampling of the 16 stories includes: The Blue Angel & Her Garden of Pets, one man's connection to feline spirituality which ultimately connects us one to the other. Finding Karma at the SPCA is a story of Universal destiny in which a cat immediately recognizes her owner, yet neither had ever met before. My Cat is So Insolent, She Has A Price on Her Head, is written with a dry sense of humor exploring the what ifs of a cat lover and her lessons learned. Caterina, Portrait of a Feline Soul Mate, is the kitten we all seek but would we have the awareness to recognize her in a room full of kittens? Then again, would she recognize us? This is an intriguing, educational and entertaining collection of cat stories that you may fondly recall during those private moments shared only with your cat.

Short biographies of notable Arab Americans, including actor and philanthropist Danny Thomas, singer Paula Abdul, artist Helen Zughaib, and activist Ralph Nader, demonstrate a wide variety of careers and contributions.
