Sažetak
Despite the fact that humans´ and animals´ lives have been interwoven for thousands of years in myriad and complex ways, social sciences have not recognized the importance of animal issues. Socio-cultural (re)interpretation of animals is particulary interesting and inspirative (DeMello 2012). Cats have come a long way from being worshipped in ancient Egyptian temples through medieval demonization to recent position as a family member in households around the world and icon in pop-culture imagery. The analysis is focused on presentations and interpretations of human-cat relationship in books A Street Cat Named Bob (2014) by James Bowen and Dewey (2012) by Vicki Myron.
