After Cleo Came Jonah

Synopsis

Many strong minded women have headstrong daughters. But this isn't supposed to extend to their cats... Some say your previous cat chooses their successor. If so, what in cat heaven's name was Helen Brown's beloved Cleo thinking when she sent a crazy kitten like Jonah? Helen Brown swore she'd never get another kitten. But while she was recovering from major surgery an unscheduled visit to a pet shop resulted in the explosive arrival of a Siamese kitten. As the house succumbed to Jonah's destructive forces, he also proved to be impossibly charming and a healer in his own right. At the same time, Helen's elder daughter, Lydia, set her heart on becoming a Buddhist nun in Sri Lanka. Lydia's determination to follow her spiritual path was matched only by Jonah's yearning to be an outdoor cat in a decidedly indoor cat neighbourhood. While dealing with her own mortality, helping to arrange her son Rob's wedding, and completing her international best seller Cleo: How a small black cat helped heal a family, Helen struggled to rein in her two unruly charges. Many strong minded women have headstrong daughters. But this isn't supposed to extend to their cats...
