  Three Wise Cats is an inspirational tale about three cats and their journey to witness the first Christmas. The old Siamese Ptolemy was alongside his master when a star of unusual brightness was seen in the heavens, indicating an event of momentous significance, and leading to a great place and fulfill the prophecy: The three shall find the one. The three are, Abishag - a sturdy, reliable cat who has never shirked her duty; Kezia - a beautiful young tabby, delicate, a bit vain, but of good heart; and Ira - taller and stronger than the others, with a temper.
  Accompanying them is a fourth traveler - the rat, Asmodeus, who can hear of no glorious thing without wanting to spoil it. Together, the unlikely band will cover many miles, and have many dangerous adventures. And finally they will come to a far land, where the star bends close to the earth over a humble stable.
