Mia and Michael Battelli want a pet more than anything. And Mia thinks a cuddly cat or kitten would be perfect. But her parents aren't sure the kids are ready for the responsibility. Then Mia spots a tiny calico foraging for food. Cali doesn't seem to belong to anyone, and she's hurt. Mia just can't leave her, to fend for herself. But what if she can't convince her parents to keep the sweet little kitten? Will Cali ever find a home?
