In a cozy shelter, a special orange kitty named Taffy waited for a new home. With her extra toes—adorable little "bonus kitty beans"—she wasn’t like the other cats. She worried that her uniqueness might keep her from finding a family. But sometimes, being different is exactly what makes you special. At the same time, Laura, a kind-hearted volunteer, was grieving the loss of her beloved cat, Roxy. She didn’t know that a chance meeting with Taffy would fill the empty space in her heart. When their paths crossed, it was more than luck—it was a purrfect synchronicity. This beautifully illustrated true story is about love, loss, and the unexpected magic that happens when we open our hearts. Taffy’s journey reminds us that sad goodbyes can lead to joyful new beginnings, and that embracing what makes us different is what makes us truly awesome. With warmth, humor, and a touch of feline wisdom, The Tale of Taffy, the Polydactyl Kitty will delight animal lovers of all ages. Whether you’re a child learning about acceptance, an adult healing from loss, or simply a fan of heartwarming rescue stories, Taffy’s adventure will leave you feeling hopeful, inspired, and ready to embrace the unexpected joys that life brings. A portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Humane Society for Southwest Washington, helping more animals like Taffy find their forever homes. Because every kitty—extra toes and all—deserves a chance to be loved.
