Synopsis
People are passionate about their cats. We pamper them, we indulge them, and we often attribute to them characteristics that are - let's face it - even more remarkable than their already remarkable actual attributes. This delightful collection of magnificent studio photographs celebrates all that is wonderful about cats, and there's much to celebrate - hence its satisfyingly large format! Divided into chapters organized by moods and expressions, these photographs depict the many faces of our favourite felines. From the sultry gaze of a sinuous Siamese to the disdainful glare of a purebred Persian, from the steady concentration of a cat poised to pounce to the pointy-eared charm of a still awkward kitten, cats spring to life in these superb portraits. Throughout the book, captions introduce us to each cat by name and provide a sentiment uncannily well-matched to the portrait above.

Customer Reviews

A Cat Lover's dream !!
This is a truly beautiful book. Rather larger than I had expected, you need quite a substantial coffee table to do it justice and it certainly doesn't fit on your average bookshelf! The photographs are truly amazing and will give hours of pleasure to any true cat lover. I think that possibly a warning should be given about the size of the book, it really is the biggest book I've ever owned and might be a problem if you were buying it as a gift. That said it probably needs to be this size to do justice to the absolutely gorgeous photographs it contains.

Calling all animal lovers!
What an exquisite book! I waited a long time to receive it, but it has been worth waiting for. The photographs show cats of all colours and in all their moods - they are irresistible and truly eloquent. This is animal photography at its very best and I would highly recommend this book for the pure pleasure it brings.
