Clark is a treatise on animal communication, specifically focusing on the notion that cats possess their own form of language. Written in the late 19th century, the work explores the intelligence and emotional depth of cats, defending them against common prejudices that portray them negatively. The book suggests that understanding feline communication could revolutionize human perceptions of animals, particularly cats. The opening of the book sets the stage by employing humor and allegories, such as referencing a fable about a cat being used by a monkey to highlight societal misunderstandings of cats. It introduces the idea that cats not only absorb family secrets as they observe daily life, but they also have a distinct language that, if comprehended, could shed light on hidden truths within households. The initial chapters suggest a blend of personal anecdotes and observations, laying a foundation for the author’s exploration of feline intelligence, social behavior, and emotional capacity, ultimately advocating for a more just and appreciative view of cats in human society.
