Cannot remember the title of a story book about a stray cat

Hello, I am new here and would like to ask your help me find a story book I have been looking for years.

I checked out a story book about a stray cat eight years ago from my university's library. It is about a couple who happened to have a surprise visit by a tiny stray cat(female) on their front screen door and their lives with the cat and her family. It is a short book, look like a children's story book and is filled with beautiful black and white photographs.

Unfortunately I cannot remember so much about the book but it was great book and I am stupid that I cannot remember the title or the author of the book. I think the kitten got sick several days after she came to the house, and although her husband was not happy about the idea of taking her in and was indifferent to her,he nursed her so gently when his wife was not around.

I contacted the librarians at the university about the book but they could not find the book because the library had a major renovation and some part of collection was relocated. I accidentally found the book on a shelf while looking for books for my class assignment so I do not know to what genre the book belongs.

Since there are many book lovers here, I thought you might have read the book in the past. The book is published 20 or 30 years ago, or even earlier. Please let me know my (poor) description of the book reminds you of something you have heard before. Thank you!
 
Thank you Proofreader. It may be. The cover of 1964's first edition looks familiar.
Local libraries do not have the book and at online bookstores I cannot see the first page of it; if I can read one paragraph I can be sure that is it.

Anyway I ordered a hard cover used book printed in 1988.

Thank you so much for your information!!
