The Cat’s Meow (1998)

The Cat's Meow by Victoria Alexander, Nina Coombs, Coral Smith Saxe, and Colleen Shannon

TO PERSONS OF GOOD CHARACTER, FREE FELINE TO STABLE HOME

The ad seemed perfect for what Gisella Lowell, an eccentric Bostonian gypsy, intended. While the newspaper ad offered only the possible adoption of four adorable cats, Gisella’s plans were a whisker more complex: four individual tales of magic and romance.

As the October nights grew chill and the winds howled, four couples would cuddle before their hearths, protected from the things that go bump in the night. While outside, children frolicked and tripped from door to door, the lovers would sample tricks and treats of their own–learning that unwrapping candy wasn’t the best thing about the holiday. And by Halloween, each would realize that they had been rewarded with the most fulfilling gift of all: a warm, affectionate feline. And, of course, true love.
