In Venice in the 1890s, a caf� owner takes in a stray cat she names Nini. This is against her better judgment, for the caf� is modest, and she has nothing to spare.

Featuring humorous illustrations with a vintage feel, this inspiring story about a real cat assures us that acts of kindness can be rewarded in unexpected ways. Includes an author's note.
