Save
[At the scene of a murder]The cats’ bloodthirst was normal; it was the way God had made them. They were hunters, they killed for food and to train their young–well maybe sometimes for sport. But this violent act by some unknown human had nothing to do with hunting–for a human to brutally maim one of the own kind out of rage or sadism or greed was, to Joe and Dulcie (the cats), a shocking degradation of the human condition. To imagine that vicious abandon in a human deeply distressed Dulcie; she did not like thinking about humans that way.
