The Bachelor's Cat: A Love Story

The bachelor was an honest man, caught between the demands of a personal life and a career, the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of meaning. His relationship with a sexy and manipulative girlfriend was halfhearted, his career as an artist led him to create art nobody wanted to buy, and he began to grow cynical. The kitten that entered his life appeared on his doorstep one cold morning. Not an overly sentimental type, the bachelor decided to take in the kitten until her rightful owner could be found. Even a stray, after all, deserved a chance to come in from the cold. Then the bachelor met a woman. She was not his usual type - not half as pretty or a tenth as mean - but she made him laugh. His time with the girlfriend had been hotter, but time spent with this woman was sweeter. As the kitten grew and the bachelor brightened, he found himself increasingly torn between the appeal of these two very different women. Struggling to make a choice between them, he discovered that his cat knew a lot more about love than he did.
