The Healer Cat / ????? ??????

Celesse, the healer cat, is the beloved guardian of her farmhouse and the animals nearby. Though she spends most days basking in cozy warmth as the mistress's favorite cat, one snowy night brings a desperate knock at the door: a mother hare begs for help-her baby is burning with fever deep in the backwoods. Reluctantly, Celesse sets off into a whirling snowstorm and biting cold. In the dark forest, danger waits... and Celesse must summon her strength and courage for the first time in a long while. A tender tale about kindness, bravery, and the quiet magic of helping others.
