This book follows the story of an old man and a cat he found under his hat. Each day the old man leaves the cat (called Hat) inside the house while he goes to feed the squirrels, making sure Hat is safe. One day the old man doesn't return, and Hat must remember what the Old Man said to him for how to stay safe, despite the temptation to do otherwise when the door is mistakenly left open by a friendly neighbour.
