In the early 1960s, a freak storm left a small Southern Maryland town reeling. Besides the property damage, the residents were mentally devastated, especially one man who had lost the person most precious to him. As he tried to cope with the new reality, he faced many challenges in his life. Eventually he finds comfort in a stray kitten and the two bond, essentially rescuing each other. He didn't want a cat living with him, but was "taken under her paw" and was able to resume his routine. The two were meant to be together until an unfortunate event occurred. As time passed, the cat assumed a "job" that no one would have thought possible. A mysterious object went missing and was discovered time and again in a strange place. Set in a by-gone era, in a simpler time, the message is as true today as it was years ago. Silent Meow is a heartwarming tale of the human-feline bond that many animal lovers will appreciate.
