| Summary | "Feline Philosophy" by Walter Léon Hess is a unique work that blends poetry and prose, likely written in the early 20th century. This book narrates the musings and experiences of a cat named Thomas Cat, exploring themes of existence, social structures, and the contrast between the lives of the wealthy and the downtrodden. Essentailly, it offers a satirical yet insightful look into human nature and society through the eyes of a feline protagonist. Throughout the book, Thomas Cat reflects on his life journey from being cherished as a household pet to experiencing the harsh realities of street life after being abandoned. He encounters various characters, including the Hortons and Mallorys, witnessing their struggles and societal roles while grappling with the philosophical implications of love, trust, and deception. As he roams the streets, the cat observes human behaviors and moral dilemmas, ultimately pondering his place in a world that often dismisses him. In a poignant conclusion, despite his ups and downs, Thomas finds solace with a new family that embraces him, highlighting themes of belonging and the impact of kindness amidst adversity.
