The dumpster was nearly full, so John Henry proceeded to dig. He gently reached back in to see what he had touched and pulled out the tiniest kitten he had ever seen. Then he felt another something warm and furry. Now he had two kittens: one white as snow and one black as night. John Henry has come to believe that, having lived a full life, it is now time to get out of the way and let the younger generations take the helm. He sees no need to make plans or become involved with life because, as he says, 'What's the point? I'll be dead soon anyway.' But everyone has a purpose, and when he is visited by two extraordinary felines, John is about to learn just how important he can be to those around him. Join in the fun in Oliver Merritt and Mary Rachel Cox's Holy Cats, as old, self-centered John Henry finds that life is worth living after all.
