Publisher's Summary
Featuring a delightful cast of characters and timeless Buddhist wisdom, and with His Holiness' compassion pervading every chapter, The Dalai Lama's Cat is simply enchanting. Not so much fly-on-the-wall as cat-on-the-sill, this is the warmhearted tale of a small kitten rescued from the slums of New Delhi who finds herself in a beautiful sanctuary with sweeping views of the snowcapped Himalayas.
In her exotic new home, the Dalai Lama's cat encounters Hollywood stars, Buddhist masters, Ivy League professors, famous philanthropists, and a host of other people who come visiting His Holiness. Each encounter offers a fresh insight into finding happiness and meaning in the midst of a life of busyness and challenge.
Drawing us into her world with her adorable but all-too-flawed personality, the Dalai Lama's cat discovers how instead of trying to change the world, changing the way we experience the world is the key to true contentment.
This audiobook also contains six delightful tracks taking you through guided stretches and sits, including:
- How to sit when you meditate
- Standing roll down and breath counting
- Paw raise and purring
- Threading the needle and body awareness
- Cat pose and visualisation technique
- Shoulder bridge and analytical meditation
- Paw stretch, tranquillity and affirmations

Such Joy!!!
Very few books are so complete. The tale so creative, the narrator such a pleasure and the meaning so inspiring. I was sad it wasn’t longer.

Gentle and profound
I loved the whole series . They spoke to you through a veil of love and compassion. Seeing the lessons of life through the Cat's eyes felt easier to understand and resolve in the self. Thank you David Michie for blessing us with your profound wisdom of Buddhism and healing.

LOVED IT!!!!! Wish I could give it 10 stars!
Learned so much about Buddhist principles through the quirky narration of a cat. I loved all the little stories HHC took me through and the realizations she made at the end of each of these moments in her life where she went through something or saw someone else go through something that caused her experience a realization through over-hearing Buddhist POV advice given to someone else about a similar problem. I do keep wondering how much input the Dalai Lama had in this book though because I want to know if these stories are based on real events and HHC's narration is assumed or if it's all just made up or assumed. It would mean a lot less to me if it was ALL made up. I hope it's not. because the stories were really real to me. They taught me a lot. ❤

A magical mystical 'tail' of discovery
I have always loved the teachings of Buddhism and I have a huge love for felines, so to combine a semi-factual story of a cat rescued by the Dalai Lama and her adventures living with the enlightened one makes for truly a beautiful tale.
David Michie eloquently narrates his own book which includes not only the daily life of the Dalai Lama's cat, as if written by little Rinpoche herself, but also beautiful sayings, Reflections and meditations to help you find some peace within.. and the Art of Purring!

A wonderful introduction to Buddhist concepts
I found some of these chapters acutely applicable to some of the troubles I was experiencing and gave wonderful insights into alternative ways of viewing these experiences.
