Timba Comes Home - Tapa dura

Timba and Vati are named after lions: and two black kittens against the world is the pact they make when they are abandoned in a ditch. But when Timba is eventually found by a young boy, Leroy, he is alone and starving. Leroy has a tough life and that is something Timba can relate to - he finds it impossible not to love the sad little boy and be his friend. Through Leroy Timba also meets Angie, Leroy's teacher, and they forge a special bond - Angie will help him find Vati, whatever it takes. Can these two black kittens find their way back to each other, and use their cat power to heal the lives of the people they love?
