Port in a Storm by K.L. Noone

Book received from both Netgalley and Less than Three Press for an honest review

This is a quick short story of roughly 28 pages about a kitten and a man. And the relationship they have together. It's cute, sweet, about what you'd expect in such a situation. Oh, and the kitten is something like a 26 year old, in human years, cat shifter - the natural kind not the 'magician using temporary magic' kind. 'Natural shifters' are super rare.

More broadly: this is a story about a young man who had fallen into a life of enjoying being petted, likes sex, and likes the easy party life. But that leads him to the situation that opens this story, or, more exactly, leads to the picture on the cover. That of a drenched kitty in pouring rain. For, you see, Colin, the shifter, had gone home with the wrong man one night (oh, this is a m/m story, by the way), and ended up wearing a collar. A compulsion collar. And he was trapped in that situation for about 8 months - that is until the start of this story when he is making his escape. In the form of a kitten (he shifts between kitten and human).

Somewhere along the way he spots a nice looking car to huddle underneath. And does so. The owner of the car spots the kitten, and rescues said cat. Brings cat home. Tries to comfort cat. Naturally . . . . well, let's not tell the whole story, eh?

As I noted, short sweet cute story about a cat shifter.
