Title: Mornings With My Cat Mii
Author: INABA MAYUMI

The perfect gift for cat lovers- a beloved Japanese modern classic about our special connection with cats, and how they can change our lives over the course of a lifetime

On a cool summer evening in 1977, Mayumi Inaba hears a forlorn cry. She follows the sound to the banks of Tokyo’s Tamagawa River and finds a newborn kitten dangling from a fence, abandoned. Overcome by tender affection, she takes the cat back to the small apartment she shares with her husband and christens her Mii- so begins an unshakeable bond.


Over the next twenty years, we follow Inaba, a poet and novelist by moonlight, as she pursues quiet solitude and a room of her own. Through it all, Mii, a fiercely independent creature in her own right, is her confidante and muse.


This beloved Japanese modern classic is not just a love letter to companionship- it’s a poignant, searching meditation on the forces that enable us to connect, to create and to build a life.
