We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the humans. Humans suffer as much as we do. True felinity does not allow us to impose such sufferings on them. It is our duty to make the whole world recognize it. Until we extend our circle of compassion to all living things, felinity will not find peace.
— Catbert Schweitzer
We must never allow the voice of felinity within us to be silenced. It is felinity’s sympathy with all creatures that first makes us truly feline.
— Catbert Schweitzer
There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and humans.
—Catbert Schweitzer
A cat is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him, that of plants and humans as that of his fellow cats, and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help.
