I can very well understand the relations formed with animals, especially cats, as I have owned several and they have since passed on, one just this last August. He was 19 years old and a pleasant companion. He comforted me when I was lonely or having a bad day. I did the same for him when his last days were evident.

this was personal to me since I have a love one suffering memory loss and felt the same frustrations as relatives of people in the book. Definitely a must read
