Remember that all stories are told from a human perspective. Cats don't have grammar and they don't have stories. A cat's eye story, therefore, is an act of projection of the human into the cat. It is a human experience of a uniquely human ability: the ability to project themselves imaginatively into others, including animals. This ability is at the root of our capacity for sympathy and our love of stories. For a great example of this kind of projection, read _The Once and Future King_.
