Résumé

This collection of 60 poems explores the behaviour of cats, very much from a zoologist's perspective, including their variety, beauty, sensuousness, and independence - and their skill as 'pets', shaping their habits and lifestyle to fit in with ours, from ancient times to the present day.

Fascinating Felines Résumé

Fascinating Felines: Sixty Cat Poems Hugh David Loxdale

This book represents an exploration - often amusing, sometimes philosophical - of the feline condition, including the variety of cats, their beauty, independence, affection, sublime indifference, cruelty, skill as hunters...and skill as pets too, as they adapt their behaviour to fit in with ours.

The poems cover a wide range of subjects from feeding time to hunting, and mad cats to monsters." - Your Cat Magazine "'Fascinating Felines' is ... a little gem, a collection of poems written by a true cat lover.
