What if goodbye is not the end of the story?

When Thurston closes his eyes for the last time, the beloved gray gentleman cat awakens in a sunlit meadow-healthy, strong, and surrounded by wonders. There are endless bowls of perfect Friskies, sparkling pink balls, mysterious raindrops, a beach he confidently identifies as a giant litter box, and a house where every light is on.

Best of all, familiar faces are waiting for him.

Reunited with Grandmommy and his old feline family, Thurston begins exploring his beautiful new home. But his heart remains with Mommy, Bobo, and Toto below. Through magical raindrops, he watches the family he left behind and tries to discover whether love can still reach someone across the distance between earth and heaven.

Along the way, Thurston learns that he cannot fix every sorrow-but he can continue loving, waiting, playing, and helping other frightened animals find their way home.

Filled with gentle humor, tender moments, and beautiful soft-watercolor illustrations, Thurston Came Running is a comforting story about pet loss, healing, mercy, and the hope that the animals we love are never truly lost.

Perfect for:

- Anyone grieving the loss of a beloved cat or other companion animal
