Summary | "The Great Small Cat, and Others: Seven Tales" by May E. Southworth is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The tales revolve around the lives and adventures of various cats, highlighting their unique personalities and relationships with humans. The main character in the first story is a small black mother cat, who exemplifies remarkable bravery and parental love in her quest for a home. The opening of this collection introduces a heartwarming narrative about a humble black kitten who arrives at a ranch, exhausted and starved. The ranch hands, touched by her plight, decide to take her in despite the reluctance of their stern landlady. The story unfolds with the kitten's journey to gain acceptance and showcase her true character, filled with love and determination, ultimately leading to moments that reveal deep human emotions associated with companionship, loyalty, and the yearning for home. As the ranch hands grow fond of her, they promise to educate her on how to navigate their unique household dynamics, setting the stage for her charming adventures and heartfelt experiences.
