After reading Jonathan Franzen's Freedom which highlighted the environmental issues posed by outdoor cats, I thought I'd look for other feline perspectives. In winter months, a lot of animals, homeless cats included, are left out in the cold. Some find warmth in a shelter or in an unusual bond. One such story is on the website of Prairie's Edge Humane Society, where I volunteer. Ren, a cat that came to the shelter a few weeks ago, "adopted" some orphan puppies. Some cats, at some times, have a heart.
Coming soon--another take on cats in a review of Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World. And, future posts--there will be dogs.
