About This Novel
"I Am a Cat" is based on the daily life of the main character, middle school teacher Jinno Kusami. With the help of a cat's vision, hearing and feeling, it intersperses the conflicts between neighbor capitalist Kaneda's attempt to marry a girl and his plot to retaliate against Kusami. It mocks the intellectuals of the Meiji era. It satirizes the empty spiritual life of intellectuals who claim to be noble but do nothing; they are dissatisfied with reality but unable to resist; they are mediocre and boring, but they denounce the contradictory character of the world, and lash out at the snobbish, vulgar and cruel nature of Kaneda and other bourgeois figures and their accomplices. The novel has ingenious conception, exaggerated description, flexible structure and distinctive artistic features.

This cat raised by the owner is not outstanding, and it cannot surpass other cats in terms of body shape, coat color, etc. But no matter how ugly it is, it cannot be as strange as the owner described it. Forget it, the color is wrong, and it doesn't even have eyes.
The cat originally wanted to stay as still as possible and help its owner draw the picture. But I feel the urge to urinate frequently and I am about to urinate. I had no choice but to stretch my legs forward and yawn to relieve the urge to urinate. But the master's original plan was ruined, so he was scolded by the master.
The last time the cat sharpened its claws on the tatami, the mistress got very angry and never allowed the cat to enter the Japanese room. Even if the cat squatted on the wooden floor of the kitchen and shivered pitifully, the mistress didn't care. This bitter trick is no longer useful to the hostess.
