With charming black-and-white illustrations and personal anecdotes, award-winning author Rosemary Sullivan shares a heartwarming and illuminating meditation on the human-feline relationship.In this warm, insightful exploration of the human-feline bond, acclaimed writer Rosemary Sullivan invites readers into the lives of her two unforgettable cats: Negrito, an intrepid neighborhood explorer, and Ensue隳, a charming trickster with a talent for theft. Blending personal anecdotes, natural history, and thoughtful reflections, The Cat's Meow captures the mystery of how cats perceive the world: seeing ultraviolet hues, navigating by scent, remembering with uncanny clarity, and demonstrating powerful homing instincts. As Sullivan follows Negrito's self-made "cat films" and observes Ensue隳's editorial interference with her writing, she considers why these domestic animals captivate us so deeply.At once enchanting and contemplative, The Cat's Meow suggests that cats may be more than companions--they may be intermediaries, reconnecting us to the natural world and reminding us of our place in a larger cosmic story. This is a delightful, companionable book for cat lovers, nature readers, and anyone intrigued by the quiet intelligence of the animals who share our lives.
