The paw on the heart

Lejonkulan

Humorous drama about a magical cat who turns a family's life upside down.
Two cat eyes suddenly shine in the dark - and nothing is ever the same again. Minou and her father have accidentally hit a cat with his fast motorbike. Minou, 8 years old, begs and pleads - and the cat is allowed to come home with them! Even though dad hates cats, especially this one.

The house is now filled with cat situations, cat-related issues and the occasional kitty-cat misunderstanding. The cat is magical, very special. And it seems to be there to support them. That's good, because even though Minou and dad want to get along so badly, they can't reach each other.

Now that the cat is there, Minou is overjoyed. They become best friends. But dad gets jealous. What does that mangy cat have that he doesn't? A power struggle of epic proportions begins. Will it end in a cat apostrophe? Or is it that everyone saves everyone?
