We'll Prescribe You a Cat

byIshida Syou

Genres: Fiction
For fans of THE TRAVELLING CAT CHRONICLES, THE CAT WHO SAVED BOOKS and SHE AND HER CAT, discover the award-winning bestselling Japanese novel that has become an international sensation in this utterly charming celebration of the healing power of cats. 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. Brimming with feline comfort and warmth, we see how the company of a wise and satisfied cat never lets us down when we need it most in this irresistible celebration of our furry friends. Contains five delicious cat line-drawings. Japanese bestseller, October 2023 Japanese readers adore WE'LL PRESCRIBE YOU A CAT: ‘The most wonderful book I've ever read’ ‘A terrific idea, a powerful ending, brilliant storytelling’ ‘The story drew me in instantly, and I laughed so much’ ‘I definitely want everyone to read this book’ ‘There are so many wonderful lines to underscore, but if I write them here, there will be spoilers!’
