Nearly everyone who cares about them knows that dogs and cats have a sense of self that renders them unique. Traditional science and philosophy declare such notions about pets to be irrational and anthropomorphic, stating that animals have only the crudest form of thought and no sense of self at all. "If You Tame Me" challenges these entrenched views by demonstrating that the human experience with animals tells a different story.
