“Perhaps one reason we are fascinated by cats is because such a small animal can contain so much independence, dignity, and freedom of spirit. Unlike the dog, the cat’s personality is never bet on a human’s. He demands acceptance on his own terms.” – Lloyd Alexander

Are you a cat lover? Whether you are a cat owner or admirer, their qualites of being independent, having dignity and expressing a freedom of spirit can show us how to listen and accept our own voices to become “our own person”, on our own terms.
