A vibrant, heartwarming graphic novel about two irresistible cat friends on a journey to find their forever home—a journey inspired by the magic of art and storytelling.

A Cat Story follows Cilla and Betto, two friends in search of a place to call home. The docks in Valletta are too wet, and the scraps of food are too scarce. The city’s streets are too busy, and the humans are too unreliable.

But what about the quiet garden from old kitten tales—a place where all cats are welcome, and the humans are always kind? Could the stories really be true?

As Cilla and Betto embark on a grand adventure to find out, they begin to spin a tale of their own—one that will take them through the art and stories of many journeyers who came before and bring them to a surprising destination.
