Rememory

This is a nicely evoked world of humans and 'Animen', humans who have undergone extensive surgery to change their body into that of other animal forms, most commonly cats and dogs. As a result, there is a culture of cats, dogs and humans that try to live separate from the other cultures.

The story describes the life style and perspective of the cat-man protagonist, his 'kit', or child, who has become a collaborator in his war on dogs, and another cat-man who has secrets of his own. Each is developed in some detail making for characters one can feel for.

The plot is nicely developed, but the ending seems too quick and simple, as though the story was a way to describe the incompatibility of various cultures and not about a secret power play the protagonist stumbles into early one. The ending seems rushed and not fully developed, but is otherwise consistent with the story.
