The last thing Gwen Cooper wanted was another cat. He kept her company through the ups and downs of daily life and by the time she had met the man she would marry Gwen realised Homer had taught her the most valuable lesson of all: love isn't something you see with your eyes.
Homer, the world-renowned Blind Wonder Cat, returns this holiday season with an ins-purr-ational tale filled with holiday cheer! Fifteen years earlier, doctors had warned that Homer—a tiny, sightless kitten—was unlikely to survive and probably wouldn't have much of a life even if he did. Miraculously and against all the odds, however, Homer grew into a feline dynamo who scaled seven-foot bookcases with ease, saved his human mom's life when he chased a late-night burglar from their apartment, and rose to global fame—paving the way for other special-needs animals once considered "unadoptable." Now, only two weeks before Christmas, with doctors once again decreeing that Homer didn't have much time—that he wouldn't even make it to Christmas Eve—Homer showed everyone that he still had one more miracle left in him. The heroic blind cat proved again, once and for all, that hope and love aren't things you see with your eyes. You see them with your heart. Humorous and heartwarming, Homer and the Holiday Miracle will leave you filled with the true spirit of the season. It's the ideal stocking-stuffer for the cat lover on your list—and the perfect holiday treat for yourself. Read and rejoice!

Kot, który patrzył sercem Ostatnie, czego Gwen potrzebowała, to kolejny kot. Miała już dwa - a do tego beznadziejnie płatną pracę i bałagan w życiu emocjonalnym. Ale gdy odebrała telefon z kliniki weterynaryjnej, że pozbawiony oczu kot szuka domu i nikt go nie chce wziąć, nie mogła odmówić. Szybko przekonała się jednak, jak mocno utrwalone są stereotypy. Znajomi i rodzina powtarzali, że ślepy kot to brzemię. Że sobie nie poradzi. Że umrze z głodu. Że to zwyczajny inwalida. Tymczasem Homer miał to gdzieś. Pędził przez mieszkanie jak rakieta, łapał owady (w locie!), a nawet obronił Gwen przed włamywaczem! Przeżył też zamach na World Trade Center. Oto historia odważnego kota, który chciał żyć
