Before the Dog became Man’s first friend…
before the Horse carried riders across the plains…
before the Cow gave milk beside the fire…
there was the Cat.
In this timeless tale from Rudyard Kipling’s beloved Just So Stories, listeners are taken back to the earliest days of the world, when animals were wild and humans were only just learning how to make a home. One by one the wild creatures of the forest make bargains with the Woman of the Cave and become the first companions of humankind.
But the Cat is different.
Proud, clever, and fiercely independent, the Cat refuses to serve anyone. Instead, he makes a bargain entirely his own — one that lets him keep his freedom while still enjoying the warmth of the fire and a bowl of warm milk.
Full of wit, charm, and gentle humor, The Cat That Walked by Himself explains — in Kipling’s wonderfully imaginative way — why cats live alongside people yet always remain a little wild at heart.
Narrated by Tony J. Martin, this classic story captures the magic and playful storytelling that have delighted listeners for generations.
