Class, Crisis and the State by Erik Olin Wright

All creatures, big and small, are worthy of acceptance, inclusion, and love. For one kitty in an adoption center, tucked in the back of a pet store, this is what she wants more than anything in the world. She is a calico kitty, and her name is Doodlebug. To make her dream come true, she must find her special person friend, get adopted, and go to her forever home. But will she have to leave her best friend, Bootsie, behind to get what she's always wanted?
