| Summary | "My Household of Pets" by Théophile Gautier is a charming collection of anecdotes and reflections on various animals that the author has kept as companions in his life. Written in the late 19th century, the book reflects on Gautier's experiences with pets, particularly focusing on his love for cats, dogs, and other small creatures. It delves into themes of companionship, loyalty, and the unique personalities of each animal, ultimately celebrating the bond between humans and their pets. In this delightful narrative, Gautier recounts his childhood memories and the many pets that have shared his life, from the false Cagnotte, a dog that initially deceived him, to the elegant white cats Pierrot and Seraphita, capturing their individual quirks and the affection he felt for them. The stories explore each pet's characteristics and antics, highlighting their interactions with the author and the impact they had on his upbringing. The work is rich in humor and warmth, offering readers a heartfelt glimpse into the joys of pet ownership, while also serving as a reflection on how these animals have molded the author's identity and his understanding of love and companionship.
