## Overview

Whimsical Whiskers is a React cat-breed browsing app. A visitor chooses a breed from a list fetched by the search form; that selection is lifted to App and passed to the banner, which fetches breed details and images and displays an image carousel. The sampled source supports these UI and API relationships; the README describes no additional product capabilities.

Main entry points: [`src/components/SearchForm.jsx`](https://github.com/melvin-logdat-dev/whimsical-whiskers/blob/main/src/components/SearchForm.jsx) (Breed selector), [`src/components/Banner.jsx`](https://github.com/melvin-logdat-dev/whimsical-whiskers/blob/main/src/components/Banner.jsx) (Breed banner), [`src/App.jsx`](https://github.com/melvin-logdat-dev/whimsical-whiskers/blob/main/src/App.jsx) (App state), [`src/components/Header.jsx`](https://github.com/melvin-logdat-dev/whimsical-whiskers/blob/main/src/components/Header.jsx) (Site header)
