Being a single parent is never easy, and having a daughter such as Cat, not to mention a cat that’s also very much a part of the family, may be too much for her dad to handle no matter how much they all may love each other!

Just when things are finally going smoothly, the clan takes a Euro trip that the continent might not be fully prepared for!

It’s a hilarious and heartwarming adventure of daily life of this little girl…with a dad and a cat along for the ride!
