How does an outside cat become an inside cat? Everybody needs a home and so do our pets. Beautiful illustrations highlight this amazing story that shows the family values of home, acceptance and adoption. Children will delight in finding the hidden mouse on each page as the mouse becomes an eyewitness when a cat arrives on the family's doorstep and into his home. Written by a school teacher, the "talking points" at the end of the book help children retell the story, give their opinions and offer their thoughts and wisdom of what they would do in a similar circumstance. The family is racially ambiguous or unknown as the cat's journey in finding a home is the focus of the story.
