‘I arm myself with an extra sweater and some garden gloves, fully expecting him to dig his killer claws into my chest, potentially infecting me with the coronavirus in the process. I have anxiety issues, you see.’ It is the spring of 2020: the world is in the grip of a pandemic. In the midst of the national lockdown, a lonely, anxious woman is self-isolating at home with no one for company but the bird-slaying tom cat terrorising her garden, whose violence she detests. Love at first sight it is not. Until one day Cocoa, the tom cat, manages to get inside her flat and all of a sudden shows his vulnerable side. Slowly, a friendship develops between these two unlikely bed fellows. Cocoa the Cat is a story about isolation, loneliness, friendship and acceptance. It is a homage to all those furry friends without whom lockdown would have been an even lonelier place.
