We'll Prescribe You a Cat

For fans of THE TRAVELLING CAT CHRONICLES, THE GOODBYE CAT and SHE AND HER CAT, the international sensation celebrates the unique healing powers of cats

A cat a day keeps the doctor away ...

Tucked away in an old building at the end of a cobbled alley in Kyoto, the Kokoro Clinic for the Soul can only be found by people who are struggling with their lives and who genuinely need help. The mysterious psychiatric centre offers a unique treatment for those who wind their way there: it prescribes cats as medication. Patients who take a cat home for a recommended duration experience a profound transformation.

Through the playful, loving, and occasionally challenging cats, the power of the curative human-animal bond is revealed. As the humans in WE'LL PRESCRIBE YOU A CAT navigate their emotional turmoil and seek resolution, their feline companions -the real heroes of the story- lead them toward healing, self-discovery and newfound hope.

Meet Bee, the female, 8-year-old mixed race cat who loves scratching;
Margot, 3 years old, also mixed and quite muscular;
Koyuki, a ragdoll cat who loves being around people;
Mimita, Scottish Fold and highly energetic;
Chitose and Calico, two capricious 2-year-olds.

Set uniquely in the characterful city of Kyoto, these comforting, soul-stirring, charming feline personalities guide their humans towards peace and contentment, reminding us how we will never ever tire of loving our cats.
