The Fascination of Cats
The independence, beauty and mystery of cats fascinate all humans who spend time with them.
Writers, artists and other sensitive people are especially drawn to cats. Free and proud, cats share our houses and environments, but never quite give up their autonomy.
The chapters of this book cover the subjects of cats’ independence, cats’ mystery, cats’ beauty and grace, cats’ relations to their humans, cats and kittens, cats and dogs, cats’ peculiarities of character, and cats’ affinity to artists and writers.
A small sample:
A house without a cat is like an aquarium without fish.
Jean-Luis Hue
The city of cats and the city of men exist one inside the other, but they are not the same city.
Italo Calvino
Always the cat remains a little beyond the limits we try to set for him in our blind folly.
Andre Norton
It always gives me a shiver when I see a cat seeing what I can't see.
Eleanor Farjeon
What a cat doesn’t know is not worth knowing.
Colette
No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch.
Leo Dworken
