The Story of For Every Cat An Angel

From the moment her dog, Jake, came into her life he had made his feelings about cats perfectly clear - they were best served on a plate, with a side order of fries! This was very disheartening to author Christine Davis because she wanted to adopt a kitty and bring some magical feline energy into her home. Jake, however, wasn’t going to make this easy.

One spring day in 1998, the author looked out her window and saw Jake with his ears up and his head cocked sideways, staring at the ground.

Sitting by his feet was a tiny kitten. It had badly infected eyes and probably couldn’t see the big dog drooling above it. Chris ran outside, hoping to prevent the cat attack she felt sure was coming. But Jake just stared at the helpless creature, then looked up at her and then turned back to the kitten. Perhaps it was because he remembered a time when he, too, had needed a home - we will never know. But in that one moment Jake opened his heart to the tabby kitten, and little Pippen become part of the family.

More meowing told them that Pippen was not an only child. Indeed, she had a brother who was hiding under the deck. With a little bit of food as encouragement the black kitten with the bent tail crawled out, and that is how Dickens found his place in the household. Later that night the mama cat left three more kittens on the front porch. Molly, a black and white tuxedo cat, and Star and Gracie, her sleek, black sisters, were brought in from the cold and Jake’s kittens were finally safe and the family was complete.

Jake brooded over his feline family, licking the formula off of their faces and nosing them back if they wandered too far. He would lie down on the floor and the kittens would swarm over him, snuggling into his thick, warm fur.

Although Gracie was destined to make her home with some good friends, Dickens, Pippen, Molly and Star immediately settled in and took over the house. Jake’s days became very busy, what with four active charges to take care of.

But it was the author whose life was changed forever. She hadn’t realized there had been four empty places in her heart that only these little furballs could fill. She hadn’t realized she had needed a feline fairy Godmother, a role that Pippen was meant to fill. She hadn’t realized life could be so much more fun if you looked at the world through the eyes of a kitten.

For Every Cat An Angel was written to welcome Dickens, Pippen, Molly and Star into the Davis household.

In 2010, the author was heartbroken by the unexpected loss of Dickens, followed a few months later by her beloved forever cat, Pippen. “The four of us had been together for so many years,” Chris said. “Suddenly, we were completely out of balance. Little by little, Star and Molly have stepped into the space left by the loss of their siblings, and their sweet and loving personalities have emerged. I deeply miss Dickens and Pippen, but I know they will always watch over us until we can all fly together through the stars!

Reviews for this Book

“When my forever kitty Eca died, a friend gave me “For Every Cat an Angel.” Brokenhearted, I read this magical little book again and again. The angelic wisdom guiding this book revealed a continuing story which eased the raw grief I was feeling. Chris Davis knew my wound and I knew a kindred spirit. For Every Cat (and Dog) an Angel is the story behind life and beyond death and I give it to all my friends. And oh yes, now I have Thunder – a gift from Eca beyond my wildest dreams. ”

“A charming story and illustrations.”

Cat Fancy Magazine

“It was just the “purfect” book in a very tough time and it helped and touched me more than you will ever know. The pictures, the words, the whole concept is as wonderful for a new cat owner as for a long time cat owner and their special companion. But to me, it was written for me and my Kenzo. Thank you to Ms. Davis for writing such a touching and wonderful book.”

Michele Melick

“I have read your book several times. Each time, my soul absorbs something new and feels renewed. I remember one night… I was crying uncontrollably over the loss of my beautiful Petey whom I miss terribly. I picked up your book, read it, and was able to calm myself enough to sleep. The words are so meaningful. In addition, the beautiful illustrations and vibrant, uplifting colors you use all work so perfectly together. This is a book that can get you through one more moment, and then another.”

Fran Baumgartner

“I have to take a minute to tell you what your book (For Every Cat) has meant to me. The World! I saw your book at the crematory & purchased it. What a blessing!! May everyone that has, is or will lose their beloved pet, somehow come in contact with your book!”
