What happens to an abandoned puppy when he meets a cat in the company of other stray dogs?
A white cat with a red tuft that, although different from the puppies, inexplicably wants to be in their company at all costs.
But why? What does she want from them?
“Go away! Go back to your home!”
The arrogant street puppies answer her rudely, they don’t want to have anything to do with a cat but she has no intention of leaving them, she has no desire to accept the world for what it is… So?
The story of Quincho, a puppy who, after being born and living peacefully in a comfortable kennel, suddenly finds himself living on the street.
One bad day, Santa Dog left home and never returned.
A few months pass and the mother goes to live with a large, fat dog who welcomes her into his kennel along with his two smaller dogs, but rejects Quincho.
And from that day on, a new life begins for Quincho. A life, alongside many other abandoned puppies, made up of days dragged from one market to another in search of food and a little affection; of that love he needs so much and that one fine day will show up on his path in the guise of a new mother. A cat, met by the street puppies during their continuous wandering, a strange white cat with a red tuft that after the initial misunderstanding, will prove to be very important for all of them.
A journey to the edge of the world between the lands of Nonsò and those of Kessai, along the streets traveled by street puppies; to meet the smile of those who live there, of those who try to caress the sky every day in those alleys, knowing full well that another life is possible, that a gram of joy is due to everyone.
A fable that tells of abandoned puppies and a cat with a red tuft who will become their new mother; to narrate through the adventures of dogs and cats, a true story, that of the street children of Managua and of a woman, Zelinda Roccia who with the help of many volunteers, since 1991 has worked every day so that these children have the opportunity to build a better future.
An association for “doing good”, known throughout the world by the name of Los Quinchos.
