Feline Philosophy - Book by John Gray

Name: Feline Philosophy
Author: John Gray

In Feline Philosophy, philosopher John Gray reflects on what humans can learn about life from cats. Gray argues that while humans are often burdened by existential angst, cats live in the moment without anxiety or the need for meaning. Drawing on philosophical ideas and the behavior of cats, Gray suggests that humans could benefit from adopting a more feline approach to life—accepting the world as it is, without striving for control or deeper significance. The book explores themes of freedom, mortality, and contentment, using cats as a metaphor for a philosophy that values simplicity and detachment over human obsessions with progress and purpose.
