A seemingly ordinary family: grocery bags, weekend plans, doctor visits, and a carpet that never quite stays clean. Then comes Noodle — a white cat with oversized eyes and a quiet determination to rewrite every house rule. Followed by Yuki, the bunny with a flair for interior design. Simba, the anxious but well-meaning Samoyed. And a whole cast of four-legged characters who slowly — and not so gently — unravel the household peace like a knitted throw: carefully, but never without leaving their pawprints. This book isn’t just about animals. It’s about the humans who slowly learn to see them. To see themselves. To sit still — even when a feline with samurai reflexes is leaping across the curtain rod. With warmth, irony, and a touch of poetry, the author tells the real story of life shared with animals: chaotic, unpredictable, absurd — and more beautiful than you’d think. A collection of short stories for grown-ups who were once children. And never fully stopped being.
