About This Book

A first-person account by a domestic cat recounts life from blind kittenhood through growth and experience in a human household. It covers pedigree and family origins, maternal care and early sheltering, interactions with children and servants, bouts of mischief and play, journeys and rivalries, the first mouse caught, episodes of illness, and domestic ceremonies and surprises. The narrative uses wry observation and affectionate detail to convey feline independence, personality, and adaptation to human domestic life.
