The true story of one fluffy cat’s wild, windy week.

A tale of chaos and courage, ruin and rescue, as Pearl’s home – like so many others – was ravaged by Cyclone Gabrielle.

Pearl loved doing all her favourite things: swatting the dog, slurping tap water, hiding in bags, and curling up to sleep.

But one Monday night, with a whoosh and a whirl, her comfortable life was turned upside-down …

Pearl’s family home in Puketapu, in Hawke’s Bay, was destroyed by Cyclone Gabrielle and it took a week for her to be reunited with her family, as the community came together in the aftermath of one of New Zealand’s worst weather events. (From the publisher’s website.)
