Love at First Sight...Vicki Myron's story about a small-town library's orphan rescue cat, Dewey, touched millions of hearts. Enter Homer...
Gwen Cooper, author of Homer's Odyssey : a Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned About Love and Life with a Blind Wonder tells how she came to adopt a blind cat. Even though Cooper had problems of her own, including a broken heart, a low-paying job, and two other cats to feed; she opened her heart and home to Homer.
As Cooper's story unfolds, you'll learn about this special kitty's extraordinary life skills; his survival instincts after 9/11, and his encounter with a nighttime intruder bent on doing harm. If you loved Dewey, you'll also love Homer.
