It's a Hard Knock Life

Bitter recluse Nancy, who cares more about her cats than about people, ironically dies from being hit in the head by a cat statue. Othniel wants to give her a second chance to learn to like people, and takes her back to the orphanarium, where she used to dream about being adopted by the perfect mom from her favourite movie. Instead she had this harsh adoption board attendant, who hates cats. While her guide Mr Smith is taught a lesson in humility, and maybe something about himself, Nancy tries her best at getting her younger self adopted by the seemingly perfect woman. But things aren't always the way they seem... or how we remember them.
