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

Charming little story
If you love cats, the Dalai Lama och Bhuddism, you will love this charming tale. It will not stretch your intellect, but what is wrong with a smile to sooth away the stresses of modern life. Nice meditations at the end to listen to last thing at night.
Having spent a fair time in Dharmsala and McLeod Ganj, I had a vivid picture the place. (This was to write a novel partly set there, titled Cloud Fever.)

An enlighting listen...
I love this book, so listen to it at regular intervals. So many little nuggets of Tibetan Buddhist wisdom interwoven into the story of a kitten found by the Dalai Lama. It is fiction of course, but a such an easy listen that you can go back to time and again!

Gentle
loved this, but had to keep going back a chapter or two. David Michie has a very soothing voice, not in the least bit boring, but I tend to listen in bed and fall asleep. I can truly say though, that I've thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the Meditations.

A peaceful place to go to
I read Buddhism for busy people a few years ago and it brought much peace into my soul. The Dalai Lama's cat books are a delightful trilogy by the same author that bring not only a calming and delightful story but very simple and powerful meditations set.
Looking forward to more of these in the future

Charming and so true
This book constitutes a charming introduction to a compassionate way of looking at the world. I loved David Michie’s smooth soothing narration. The whole story is told from the point of view of the cat but the author manages it perfectly without strain of any sort. It is a real antidote to life’s nervousness and speed. I enjoyed it very much. There is a great deal of wisdom presented in a totally non-preachy way.
