Description: Homeless and hungry, Magnificat is desperate for someone to take her in, so when she sees a kindness in local boy Ben, she is happy to give herself over to him. But a cat isn't something Ben wants. He's got enough problems with a prickly relationship with his mum and an absent father - besides, he's a dog person. He wants an exuberant, loyal, doting companion, not a gentle, self-contained cat. Magnificat might move into his house, but he doubts she'll ever find a place in his heart...
