â€œâ€˜Oh! How adorable! I didnâ€™t know you had a cat!â€™ she exclaimed.,I am always surprised how many people make this observation. Why should His Holiness ,not, have a cat?,â€˜If only she could speak,â€™ continued the actress. â€˜Iâ€™m sure sheâ€™d have such wisdom to share.â€™,And so the seed was planted . . . ,I began to think that perhaps the time had come for me to write a book of my ownâ€”a book that would convey some of the wisdom Iâ€™ve learned sitting not at the feet of the Dalai Lama but even closer, on his lap. A book that would tell my own tale . . . how I was rescued from a fate too grisly to contemplate to become the constant companion of a man who is not only one of the worldâ€™s greatest spiritual leaders and a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate but also a dab hand with a can opener.â€,Â ,Starving and pitiful, a mud-smeared kitten is rescued from the slums of New Delhi and transported to a life she could have never imagined. In a beautiful sanctuary overlooking the snow-capped Himalayas, she begins her new life as the Dalai Lamaâ€™s cat.,Warmhearted, irreverent, and wise, this cat of many names opens a window to the inner sanctum of life in Dharamsala. A tiny spy observing the constant flow of private meetings between His Holiness and everyone from Hollywood celebrities to philanthropists to self-help authors, the Dalai Lamaâ€™s cat provides us with insights on how to find happiness and meaning in a busy, materialistic world. Her story will put a smile on the face of anyone who has been blessed by the kneading paws and bountiful purring of a cat.
