There are few relationships as close as that between you and a beloved pet. An outsider might see the pet receiving food, shelter, grooming, play and affection. But what do you get? With this book, and the help of your cat, you might find the keys to living a better, more fruitful, spiritual life.

There are few relationships as close as that between you and a beloved pet. An outsider might see the pet receiving food, shelter, grooming, play and affection. But what do you get? With this book, and the help of your cat, you might find the keys to living a better, more fruitful, spiritual life. There have been hundreds of books written about cats (and at least a dozen times that many calendars), but none does what this book achieves. It's time that cats taught us a thing or two about our own lives. Observing the basic skills and patterns of cats is a doorway to knowledge about a life lived in contentment. From the patterns of play, to the need for sleep, to finding joy in the smallest of things, cats show us how to reach inside ourselves for higher goals, a less stressful life, and a newfound ability to purr in tune with the world. This book is for cat owners who want to recognize the lessons their animals teach daily. It isn't enough to know that "cats purr when they're happy." Owners want to purr, too!
