Discover GIGIA AND ME!

"Gigia and Me! An Extraordinary Journey", "Il Dono di Gigia" in Italian, by Jasmine L. Quan is the purr-fect story of how life can go from "international tiger conservationist" to "full-time servant to a judgmental tabby" in record time. After losing nearly everything (career, home, and most of her dignity to a series of unfortunate events), Jasmine was adopted by Gigia - a cat with emerald eyes and the leadership skills of a Roman emperor. Their adventures through Italy became a masterclass in resilience, with Gigia proving that the best therapists have four legs and zero tolerance for human melodrama.

This isn't just a memoir - it's a survival guide featuring:

  • 13 easy cat tricks (because your feline overlord deserves enrichment)
  • Stunning Italian backdrops (all carefully sniff-approved by Gigia)
  • Proof that rock bottom makes for excellent character development (especially when a cat is judging your progress)
"I thought I was rescuing Gigia. Turns out she was just waiting for me to catch up", Jasmine's humbling realization.

Gigia and Me! An Extraordinary Journey

("Il Dono di Gigia" in the Italian edition)

A purr-fect story of how life can go from "international tiger conservationist" to "full-time servant to a judgmental tabby" in record time. After losing nearly everything—her career, her home, and most of her dignity—Jasmine was adopted by Gigia.

Their adventures through Italy became a masterclass in resilience, with Gigia proving that the best therapists have four legs and zero tolerance for human melodrama.

This memoir doubles as a training guide, featuring 13 easy cat tricks (because your feline overlord deserves enrichment). It proves that rock bottom makes for excellent character development—especially when a cat is judging your progress.
