Wish I could read "Cat's Dream" in Spanish to know if Neruda referred to the cat as "it" (as translated) or "he" or "she". I think it was probably the latter. Sharon Azar WOOF! Sharon Azar from United States Comment 1 of 4, added on November 11th, 2004 at 10:02 AM. my cats are melted on the radiators in deep sleep these cold days- I look at them & see them as Neruda sees his cat asleep- their dreams taking them far far far away- & their bodies so fluid in this travel. How perceptive & imaginative is his description! frances from United States
