Overview
With quotations, stories, tips, and trivia, along with classic poems by Wordsworth and Dickinson, this delightful collection is surely the cat's meow"What greater gift than the love of a cat?" —Charles DickensIn this beautifully illustrated miscellany, a selection of marvelous moggies are introduced—some that have narrowly escaped death or been on incredible journeys, others that have made it big in Hollywood, and yet others that have broken world records. It explains kitty trivia such as how the Siamese's eyes became crossed and how to predict the weather by watching your cat, and expounds purr-ls of wisdom from feline fans in all walks of life, including writers like Colette and Ernest Hemingway, artists like Pablo Picasso, and celebrities like Drew Barrymore. Cat lovers themselves are a breed apart, so the tales of the 18th-century writer who handpicked oysters for his prized puss to eat and the millionaires who left it all to their cats are sure to bring a wry smile of recognition to the faces of all the dyed-in-the-wool ailurophiles out there.Reviews
