Publisher's Synopsis
GIGIA AND ME! An Extraordinary Journey
How the Love of a Cat Transformed a Life
Jasmine L. Quan had it all - an exciting career in the world of fashion and luxury, only to trade it for a cause far greater: rewilding the South China tiger. Her groundbreaking work, featured in global media such as BBC, The Los Angeles Times, and Science, put her at the forefront of wildlife conservation. But life took an unexpected turn. When she lost everything-her career, home, and sense of purpose - she hit rock bottom.
Then came Gigia, a small tabby cat with emerald-green eyes and an even bigger spirit. What started as a simple companionship soon became an extraordinary partnership, teaching Jasmine to see life through new eyes. Their adventures across Italy's stunning landscapes - from the sun-kissed shores of Calabria to the historic streets of Venice - became a journey of healing, rediscovery, and love. "Gigia didn't just walk into my life-she saved it. With her quiet charm, she reminded me of the power of trust, laughter, and finding beauty in the smallest moments." - Jasmine L. Quan More than just a memoir, GIGIA AND ME! is a celebration of resilience, unexpected friendships, and the incredible lessons animals can teach us. With humour, heart, and profound insights, the book also includes an easy-to-follow appendix on training cats, making it a must-read for animal lovers and pet trainers alike. Praise for GIGIA AND ME! "A book as wonderful and magical as Gigia the cat!"
- Anthony Frewin, author of The Lion of Canterbury "A heartwarming and inspiring journey of determination, self-discovery, and triumph over adversity, made even more poignant by the devotion of one extraordinary cat."
