The Feline Mystique

My beloved cat, Susie, passed away in July. I miss her a great deal. For therapy, I started writing her story (which is now a small book!) and I read The Feline Mystique: On the Mysterious Connection Between Women and Cats by Clea Simon.

Simon includes information she gathered from interviewing many women on their cats and also provides much to ponder on the mythical meanings of cats throughout history. My favorite parts were definitely the stories of real women and their furry family members, which were sad, funny, and revealing.

Simon's book is a must for all women cat lovers.
