Description
Can the cat she never wanted; teach her the lessons she never knew she needed?
It was not love at first sight for Jinx and Cynthia. The long-haired, dandruff-ridden creature wasn’t Cynthia’s dream for a new family pet. And Jinx was equally unimpressed with her.
Jinx’s arrival marked a dramatic turning point in Cynthia’s life. Soon after, she endured a devastating loss and battled grief, loneliness, and depression. Throughout the turmoil, Cynthia and Jinx progressed from sparring partners, to reluctant roommates, to friends. When Cynthia finally decided to take her life back, she brought Jinx along for the ride.
Side by side, they weathered all the excitement, disappointment, mishaps, and adventures that come with finding happiness and redefining your life. Through it all, Jinx was an unexpected source of comfort, affection, and valuable life lessons. Because sometimes the thing you most need shows up in the way you least expect.

Featured Reviews
Happiness Came With a Cat - New Edition is a reminder that sometimes the greatest gifts come in the form of unexpected companions. Through laughter, tears, and a few mishaps, Cynthia and Jinx navigate life's ups and downs together, ultimately discovering the transformative power of friendship.
I was gifted this book kindly by the author on Net Galley in the same week my cat died . It turned out to be a great way for me to remember all the behaviors and lovely aspects of our cats. Mr. Jinx comes into the authors life and becomes her emotional support and best friend after the author suffered the loss of her husband by divorce and suffered from depression and a eating disorder. I admit i thought the cat over the husband was the best choice for the author and Mr. Jinx proved his worth to her in his life many times over. He is a amazing cat very much in tune with his human. I enjoyed the way the chapters related to our cats and how they save our lives and change us for the better. A excellent must read for all cat lovers. Well done to the author. I highly recommend this book for all cat lovers.
Cynthia's life takes an unexpected turn when she reluctantly welcomes Jinx, a long-haired cat, into her home. Initially, the two are far from enamored with each other, but as Cynthia faces loss, grief, and personal struggles, their relationship evolves into a heartwarming friendship.
This book is a poignant exploration of the healing power of companionship and the lessons we learn from the most unexpected sources.
