Messenger Cat Café

Another heartwarming Japanese bestseller about a cat in the afterlife who must deliver messages to five people on earth in order to see his beloved owner again . . . if only he can manage to not disrupt the balance of the universe.
After a long life with a loving human family, tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife—but he is not as far from his owner Michiru as it seems. Slight openings bridge the divide between the lands of the living and the dead, and they can be traversed.
Eager to see Michiru again, Fuuta interviews for a position at Café Pont, a café that exists in the liminal space between the two worlds, known for its unique message delivery service: Customers leave requests with the name of the person they wish to meet, and a messenger cat is assigned to arrange the "meeting." But these encounters cannot happen directly. The cats can only deliver the soul of the desired target by temporarily implanting it into an appropriate third party who then may relay the message in careful words.
If Fuuta doesn’t maintain plausible deniability, he could cause panic amongst the living, or worse: he could upset the balance of the universe itself. It is a weighty task for an old tabby cat, but Fuuta is up for the challenge. After all, the job offers a special reward: the right to see Michiru. And he'll do anything to reunite with his family again.
