description: Once upon a time, a boy saved a kitten from a tree. She turned out to be a princess and wanted to grant him a wish. Determined to save the wish for the right moment, he found himself with the ability to talk to cats until he found a chance to use it.That boy might have been Lee Holtzer. But if it was, you wouldn’t know, because all he really cares about it getting into college so he can study biology, and repairing his relationship with his best friend before he graduates. But between Lee’s insecurities, Frank’s stubbornness, and their shared lack of communication, it might be too late.Prince of Cats is set in the year 2003, in a county situated on the Pennsylvania/New Jersey border of the Delaware River. It’s an area of economic diversity, where Lee, living comfortably in the upper middle class, attends school with everyone from the rich to the poor. It is not a racially diverse area, nor a progressive one, and the conservative climate makes life difficult for minorities like Frank. A code of silence prevails for the sexually “deviant,” so when one of the boys is outed as gay to the rest of the school, life gets even more complicated.Prince of Cats is a love story that spans a year of their high school drama.
