She encounters Bob, a black cat and while black cats are generally thought to be bad luck, Bob is a Scottish cat and in Scotland, a black cat is a sign of good luck. This seems true for Sam as she comes across a lucky penny which brings her good luck.
Unfortunately, things don’t stay that way for long and the penny goes missing.
It also turns out that Bob is a magical cat and Sam follows him to the Land of Luck, an Oz-like place where other magical creatures like leprechauns live.
