    “Though a cat may choose to share her affection with a human or two, she will always remain that quixotic mix of unpredictability and individuality that challenges the understanding of the most patient among us. It is as if they know that when they first stepped into the human ring of firelight, they forever altered our history, influencing our religions, our literature, our art—our very lives.” –From the IntroductionChapter One, “Evolutionary Cat,” traces the domestic feline back to the Paleocene Era, then introduces its big cat relatives. Sidebars highlight the fascinating evolutionary differences between big cats and small cats, which clearly explain why the smaller kitties became household favorites.

Yet, in the seventeenth century, cat popularity rose again as the French aristocracy welcomed the cat back into polite society.Chapter Two, “Cultured Cat,” is a survey of artistic homage paid to the cat. From Aesop’s fables to Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland, cats have been featured as analogy, metaphor, and hero. From the Egyptians to Leonardo da Vinci and beyond, the cat has been featured in paintings and other media. Notable cat lovers include Winston Churchill, President Lincoln, and President Roosevelt, whose cat, Slippers, often attended White House dinners. Enemies of the cat include Hitler, Alexander the Great, and Napoleon.Chapter Three, “Physical Cat,” is a guide to understanding and caring for your cat. First, each of the cat’s senses and physical attributes are described, to reveal how they see the world. Important cat care issues are discussed, such as whether you should get your cat “fixed” (definitely!) and what ailments your cat is likely to suffer from. Also provided are tips for proper training, advice on when to vaccinate, and information about choosing and caring for kittens.Cat Life closes with a “Gallery of Breeds,” a parade of fascinating cat types with descriptions of their unique personalities and special characteristics.

     Louis Wain (1860 – 1939) was a very successful English artist whose fame resulted from his drawings and paintings of cats. Even though past civilizations revered cats - the ancient Egyptians worshipped them as gods - they were not highly thought of in Wain's Britain. Today cats and dogs are highly valued pets but the lives of their English feline cousins were hard and even brutish - until Louis Wain. The artist showed cats engaging in sports like golf, playing musical instruments, drinking tea and champagne, partying, fishing, smoking cigars and pipes - in short, acting like humans. We've grown up with Disney and other cartoons wherein animals behave like humans. We've even seen live animals like Mr Ed, the talking horse or Francis the talking mule, so this kind of behavior isn't surprising to us. However, the English citizens of the day were stunned by Wain's cats and it isn't stretching the truth to claim that he created a whole new attitude towards cats.
