Cat Who Came In From The Cold A Fable From Ancient India

Cats relish independence, and Billi is no exception. He wanders through the Indian countryside enjoying a sense of freedom, belonging to nobody. But the monsoon season, when the skies go pitch-dark and the rains come, has arrived, and Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is approaching. At a time when everyone is eager to be home with family and friends, Billi is alone ... and lonely. Walking into a village, Billi gazes through windows and sees a cozy fire, a content dog, a happy family with children. Inspired, Billi's untamed soul begins the transformative journey to a new life of warmth in a world of interconnectedness. With his inimitable storytelling gifts and his unparalleled ability to penetrate the animal psyche, Jeffrey Masson captures Billi's inner world-his aloofness, his mischievousness, and, ultimately, his new perspective on the deep connection between humans and their feline friends.Masson, Jeffrey Moussaieff is the author of 'Cat Who Came In From The Cold A Fable From Ancient India', published 2004 under ISBN 9780345478665 and ISBN 0345478665.
