Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

I thought the cats were very human. I mean, despite the author's continuous remarks about cat nature, the metaphor for a human society seemed obvious.

My initial impression of High Clowder Cats is that children would be drawn to it because of the cover, but it was not for children. I don't really think it is for young adults, either. The verbiage in the book is too complicated for young adults. If they have to look up the meaning of words, they won't read it. I even came across several words that I did not know the meaning of, and I am a senior citizen. It did have some valuable lessons in it, but if they aren't going to stick with it, what's the point?
