Turned out How to Argue with a Cat is more gimmicky than I initially suspected. The writing is uninspiring and the points raised makes one go “duh!” or “huh?”.

I have not read Thomas Ligotti’s horror stories. Maybe I should. While I cannot determine if his flair for horror writing translates well to his philosophical musings, the dark pessimism that permeates this book is so strong that it will leave casual readers feeling depressed long after they have finished reading it.
