Philip Gonzalez and Leonore Fleischer, The Dog Who Rescues Cats: The True Story of Ginny "Philip Gonzalez, a young steamfitter with a zest for life, had lost all interest in living after an industrial accident left him disabled. A friend suggested he adopt a dog. Reluctantly he went to the shelter, where Ginny, a badly abused one-year-old pup with chocolate eyes and a sweet grin, quickly won him over.
"On their first real walk together . . . she dragged Philip into a vacant lot, where she immediately found a starving stray cat and coerced Philip into feeding it. A month later, after finding and feeding dozens of strays [they] went back to the shelter to get Ginny her own cat . . ."
