Full Description
Elizabeth Marshall Thomas has an instinct for animals and what makes them behave the way they do. This time her subject is felines - house cats and their wild siblings - and the kinds of bonds they form with us and with each other. The book begins by examining just what cats are (meat-eaters, first and foremost) and their images of themselves in relation to humans. Next, it traces cat culture as it evolved through the ages. Finally, the book examines cats on their own and together.
