A book that "speak[s] volumes about our need for connection--human, feline or otherwise" (The San Francisco Chronicle), The Travelling Cat Chronicles is a life-affirming anthem to kindness and self-sacrifice that shows how the smallest things can provide the greatest joy--the perfect gift for cat lovers and travellers!
We take journeys to explore exotic new places and to return to the comforts of home, to visit old acquaintances and to make new friends. But the most important journey is the one that shows us how to follow our hearts...
An instant international bestseller and indie bestseller, The Travelling Cat Chronicles has charmed readers around the world. With simple yet descriptive prose, this novel gives voice to Nana the cat and his owner, Satoru, as they take to the road on a journey with no other purpose than to visit three of Satoru's longtime friends. Or so Nana is led to believe...
With his crooked tail--a sign of good fortune--and adventurous spirit, Nana is the perfect companion for the man who took him in as a stray. And as they travel in a silver van across Japan, with its ever-changing scenery and seasons, they will learn the true meaning of courage and gratitude, of loyalty and love.

The book is an amazing story of the love between a human and a feline. The friendships we make in our lives and the soft and caring human who all he did for his friends and feline was an act of love.
This is a fabulous book. Very well written and so heartwarming. Absolutely loved it!
Great story from a cat’s perspective, of the bond between him & his owner. We follow Nana & his owner Saturo as they travel Japan trying to find Nana a new home.
I love this book! The author takes you into the mind of a cat in a fun, humorous and poignant way. Very well written and keeps you entertained from start to finish.
It was okay, I had a hard time falling in love with Nana. I don't hate cats but I dont like cats either and this is exactly what I expect of a cat, rude behavior ect. I stepped away from the book when the poor dog was getting reprimanded. I will say the ending of the book was Nana's saving grace. The story was overall in my opinion is well paced, although some parts did get slow. If you are a cat lover I think you will like this book.
