We'll prescribe you a cat

Syou Ishida

On the top floor of an old building at the end of a cobbled alley in Kyoto lies the Kokoro Clinic for the Soul. Only a select few - those who feel genuine emotional pain - can find it. The mysterious centre offers a unique treatment for its troubled patients: it prescribes cats as medication. Get ready to fall in love: Bee, an eight-year-old female, mixed breed helps a disheartened businessman as he finds unexpected joy in physical labour; Margot, muscly like a lightweight boxer, helps a middle-aged callcentre worker stay relevant; Koyuki, an exquisite white cat brings closure to a mother troubled by the memory of the rescue kitten she was forced to abandon; Tank and Tangerine bring peace to a hardened fashion designer, as she learns to be kinder to herself; Mimita, the Scottish Fold kitten helps a broken-hearted Geisha to stop blaming herself for the cat she once lost.
