Michael Evans worked lonely night shifts in Florida, walking quiet routes where the world felt empty and cold. Then a stray cat began following him, step for step, like she was scared to be left behind again. He called her Tree Kitty, and every night she stayed so close it felt like she was holding onto him with her whole heart.
Michael fed her, talked to her softly, and on the chilliest nights he let her warm up in his patrol car. This sweet soul didn’t ask for much, only safe arms and a reason to trust.
When he finally brought her home, they rushed her to the vet—worried she was sick. But Tree Kitty had been hiding a secret… and it would change everything.
