We'll Prescribe You a Cat

A cat a day keeps the doctor away...

On the top floor of an old building at the end of a cobbled alley in Kyoto lies the Kokoro Clinic for the Soul. Only a select few - those who feel genuine emotional pain - can find it.

The mysterious centre offers a unique treatment for its troubled patients: it prescribes cats as medication.

Get ready to fall in love:

• Bee, an eight-year-old female, mixed breed helps a disheartened businessman as he finds unexpected joy in physical labour;
• Margot, muscly like a lightweight boxer, helps a middle-aged callcentre worker stay relevant;
• Koyuki, an exquisite white cat brings closure to a mother troubled by the memory of the rescue kitten she was forced to abandon;
• Tank and Tangerine bring peace to a hardened fashion designer, as she learns to be kinder to herself;
• Mimita, the Scottish Fold kitten helps a broken-hearted Geisha to stop blaming herself for the cat she once lost.

As the clinic's patients seek inner peace, their feline friends lead them towards healing, self-discovery and newfound hope.

Contains five delicious cat line-drawings.
