"Moufflou, and other stories" by Ouida is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The book primarily revolves around themes of love, sacrifice, and the bonds between humans and animals, with a particular focus on the charming poodle named Moufflou and his interactions with a poor family living in Florence. The stories reflect the struggles of the characters against societal challenges and their relationships with their beloved pets. In the titular story, "Moufflou," the narrative follows a poor family, whose members cherish their poodle, Moufflou, and the joy he brings. The eldest son, Tasso, works hard to support the family, while his young, crippled brother Lolo forms a special bond with Moufflou. As the story unfolds, the family faces the harsh reality of military conscription and the difficult decision of selling Moufflou to pay for a substitute for Tasso. This heartbreaking choice leads to emotional turmoil for Lolo, who falls ill from the loss of his beloved dog. However, the story culminates in a touching reunion when Moufflou finds his way back home, showcasing the themes of loyalty and the deep emotional ties between pets and their owners. The additional stories in the collection also explore various facets of life, nature, and the human experience, woven together with Ouida's characteristic flair for vivid descriptions and emotional depth.
