Description

Elizabeth Marshall Thomas (au). The story begins with what cats are: meat-eaters, first, & foremost. But within that stark equation abides an astonishing range of experience & expression. Cats -- even tigers -- are not solitary beings, but are homebodies who ‘own’ property & favor extended clans when food supplies permit. They communicate with one another & with us. Most crucially, cats are, like us, individuals who -- instinct notwithstanding -- pass on, adapt, & invent codes of deportment as circumstances require. They sustain an intricate, elegant, ever-changing web of community with us, among themselves, & with the other creatures, great & small, who dwell in the world. B&W drawings. New York Times bestseller. Intriguing. Captivating.
