Who can believe that there is no soul behind those luminous eyes! —Theophile Gautier
Of course cats have souls. I know after living with cats for decades. I’ve looked and cats do stare without blinking. I know they look deep into others’ souls and the souls of humans. How else could they decide who will be their servants?
If you are worthy of its affection, a cat will be your friend, but never your slave. —Theophile Gautier
Cats aren’t slaves or property in any way. They know this. They do become fond of certain humans and befriend those they like. But cats never submit to humans as slaves or property. Cats still retain a simple dignity while bestowing their affection on those worthy of it.
