Leonard is a cat who loves his human, but he gets lonely while his human is not home. He sees another cat in an apartment building across the street. He decides to sneak out and meet the other cat. They become friends. On one of Leonard's excursions he becomes stuck inside his new friend’s apartment and can’t get home to his human. He can see through the window that his human is sad. Leonard is treated really nice at his friends house, but will he ever get back to his human?

All Cats Welcome tugged at my heart while Leonard was lost. Leonard’s thoughts and adventures are delightful to watch through clever words and cute illustrations. All “humans” will relate to this book as Leonard finds a place where all cats and their humans are welcome.
