Lola: A True Story Mostly

This is a furry tale in contrast to a fairy tale telling the true story of Lola as seen through her own eyes. She takes the reader on the journey of her life from the moment she was rescued at Harding River Caravan Park in Roebourne as a three week old homeless kitten to the day she arrives in Perth as a mature two year old cat. Lola chronicles the personal trials and tribulations she faced growing up without a mother to guide and teach her what she needed to know to become an effective adult cat. Her story has elements of humour and sadness as she moves from the loss of her feline family to finding a human one who take her on with few expectations for her future. A myriad of situations with both positive and negative outcomes shape Lolas personality along the way to adulthood. These include learning to control her emotions and reactions to unfamiliar experiences striving to find her niche in a family of other animals and coping with ridicule for being different. Lola however has a quirky philosophical and thankful attitude to life and no matter what hand she is dealt she develops resilience in the face of adversity including the break-up of the family she came to love and respect for saving her. You will laugh and you may cry following this fortunately unfortunate little cat who learns that growing up has many lessons some harder than others. She becomes the feline equivalent of The Three Stooges fumbling her way through life. Despite the rough road she not only survives but thrives thanks to her perseverance and enduring will to live!
