Heartbreaking story about the lebanese war

A sad story about war from the viewpoint of a cat. Made me sympathize a lot with war survivors.
The author's performance and the background sound effects were great too.

A must for every Lebanese

Besides the sad ending which is real life unfortunately, especially given the context of war, I loved it all! The detailed description and the music and sound effects... poor kitty though 😞
