The Lion in the Living Room: How House Cats Tamed Us and Took Over the World by Abigail Tucker
4.0
I loved this book.
As a cat lover and cat owner, I am not blind to the fact that cats can be jerks. This book answered the question
"Why are cat's jerks"
the answer?
Because they can be. This is their world and we're just living in it.
While every other domestic animal has evolved in ways to fit into OUR lives better, the cat, has not. At all.
While every other animal serves a purpose, protection, food, music... the cat ... nothing.
Which leans to the point that cats were never invited into our home, they just showed and said 'I'm here, feed me' and we did...
This is a really interesting book and a must read for any cat lover.
