Feline Philosophy - Cats And The Meaning of Life

"Cats don't need advice about life. They are content with the life they lead. For people, on the other hand, it feels very natural to constantly look for happiness. They are always striving for a higher purpose. However, cats don't do that. They're just happy to be themselves. That's why cats don't value philosophy. They've known how to live for a long time," author John Gray. There is no real evidence that humans have ever "domesticated" cats. Rather, it seems that at some point, cats saw the potential value of humans and chose to enter into a relationship with us. And anyone who has ever looked at a cat for a while knows that a cat has fully mastered the art of living well. How do they do that? In Feline Philosophy, philosopher John Gray attempts to get to grips with the philosophical and moral issues surrounding the bond between cats and humans. In this beautiful book, Gray gives fascinating examples of the complex and intimate relationship. How we react to this special 'pet' says a lot about our human behaviour. The book is an expression of gratitude to cats and it also gives us a better understanding of our own animal nature.
