Great story about loyalty and patience! (And karma, if you follow)

Quick synopsis: Jennifer & Josephine start out in a junkyard. An inpatient, grumpy man comes and buys the car, and the cat decides to tag along. Grumpy man abandons car when she gets stuck in the mud. Cat saves car from being washed away by surging river. Farmer's son adopts car (and by proxy, cat) and they both live happily ever after.

(I know, that just doesn't do it justice.)

I read Bill Peet stories when I was a kid, and now my daughter is having them read to her.
