Description: "The odds had always been stacked against Homer, the little blind kitten nobody wanted. But destiny took a hand the day he met Gwen Cooper, and with the publication twelve years later of the international best seller 'Homer's Odyssey,' Homer went from beloved housecat to world-wide star. He became the scourge and darling of the reporters, photographers, videographers, bloggers, and radio hosts who clamored to meet him--dragging his hapless human behind him as he greeted fame with his usual joie de vivre and occasional 'catitude.' He became a spokes-cat for the cause of special-needs animals everywhere, and eventually the wise older mentor to the new special-needs kitten who would enter his and Gwen's lives. Most importantly, Homer taught those who loved him best how to live and die with strength, dignity, and joy--and left behind a rescue community of 'Homer's Heroes' that continues to save countless lives in his name"--Back cover.
