    The female protagonist has a special spatial ability. It's a post-apocalyptic story with a natural disaster theme. The spatial ability doesn't support humans; instead, she and her family of cats and dogs face challenges together without causing any trouble. The female protagonist isn't a pushover, nor does she easily cross ethical boundaries.
