Throughout the world, people spend much of their time with animal companions of various kinds, frequently with cats and dogs. What meanings do we make of these relationships? In the ecocritical collection Reading cats and Dogs, a diverse array of scholars considers the philosophy, literature, and film devoted to human relationships with companion species. In addition to illuminating famous animal stories by Beatrix Potter, Jack London, Italo Svevo, and Michael Ondaatje, readers are introduced to the dog poems of Shuntarō Tanikawa, a Turkish documentary on stray cats as neighborhood companions, and the representation of diverse animal companions in Cameroonian novels. Focusing on “Stray and Feral Companions,” “The Usefulness of Companion Animals,” and “Problematizing Companion Animals,” Reading Cats and Dogs aims both to confirm and topple readers’ assumptions about the fellow travelers with whom we share our lives, our streets and fields, and our planet. Fifteen contributors from various countries reveal the aesthetic, ethical, and psychological complexities of our multispecies relationships, demonstrating the richness of ecocritical animal studies.

"I love my cats," writes Sharon Gannon in this important book that promotes health and wellness for your companion animals. Yet, she says, "years after mad cow disease was linked to the cannabilistic feeding of cows to cows, rendered animals are still routinely used in some pet food and commercial feed. Cows, pigs, chickens, dogs and cats are innocently eating each other." Cats and Dogs Are People Too sheds light on the commercial pet food industry and offers healthy alternatives. It explores how you can keep your animals healthy and eating nutritiously balanced food through diet and supplements without being alarmist or emptying your wallet. Sharon also explores the complex emotional lives of our cats and dogs and argues that the love they show to us needs to be met with equal responsibility on our part.
